The immaculate grounds feature inground sprinklers and a natural pond that attracts wildlife and birds. The Strathmore West ASP includes this 3 acre parcel. A potential rezoning in a few years might make this 3 acre parcel a worthy commercial consideration? There is a large concrete pad already poured on the North side of the property which would make an ideal base to bring in a modular or mobile home. Permits and applications must go through the Town of Strathmore as this property is annexed in to the Town. Now is the time to think about a long term investment - live here for 10 years while the town builds out towards you and enjoy the potential revenue generation or create a family set up that delivers a dream come true for many. For more information on the Strathmore West ASP please access the uploaded documents. More details
