Description

Designed to be a pocket neighborhood , this proposed community features various living spaces all centered around a stately turn of the century foursquare home. This is an opportunity to build 9 Cottages, 2 Duplexes, 2 Quadplexes, 2 Carriage Houses, 1 Bungalow for a total of 22 Units in addition to the circa 1917 existing home. 56 total beds in the proposed development allow for an attractive density for development. The 1.85 acre site has utilities adjacent to the site, allowing for simple infrastructure installation. The site boasts an amazing location inside The Loop and is walking/biking distance to immediate daily needs and only a half-mile from UGA's Health Science Campus/Medical School in Normaltown, and all that neighborhood has to offer, with Downtown and UGA's Main Campus just beyond that. A home is a place, not a thing, and more and more municipalities have started to re-allow the construction of smaller homes on smaller parcels without a required amount of road frontage and without a suspiciously high minimum square footage requirement. A duplex might be built next to a quadplex, and those both might be built next to two larger houses, next to a six unit condo, all harmoniously creating a thriving community enjoyable by all. Turns out that missing middle housing has been found, buried for decades under mounds of zoning rules that likely were intentionally set up for someone's benefit at the expense of others. Not anymore, and that's why you are reading this!
