STARR DRIVE CORNER LOT Location, Beauty, Convenience, and Ready-to-build. County meets City: The City of Fayetteville literally wraps around the 1.2 acre Washington County lot. The corner lot fronts over 400 feet of the Fayetteville City limits. This unique County lot has the benefits of both a County lot AND a Fayetteville City lot (read on for more). Rare find: The availability of buildable lots in east Fayetteville is rare, especially one this size in such a great location. A highly desirable address: The conveniently located lot is in the middle of a beautiful neighborhood full of estate homes, even an elegant horse ranch, plus the well-maintained Huntington Place subdivision. City sewer: The new owner of this lot has the City?s official permission to tap into the city sewer along Starr Drive (see History below)! No septic required. Ready-to-build: Service on the lot includes city water and sewer, gas, electricity, and several fiber Internet options. Inviting topography and features: This mostly flat, mostly square lot slopes gently to the east. One of the many inviting features is a spring-fed stream that runs most of the year. Dozens of growing and mature trees are growing along the stream. Imaginative owners and landscape architects can feature the stream, possibly with a foot bridge or deck over or along the stream, possibly even a small pond. Size: This is an estate-size lot, officially 1.179 acres. If you include the land available for owner use in the city/county lawn-only easement, it?s almost 1.5 acres (1.43). The Starr Drive Association: The friendly, established neighborhood is part of SDA, is one of Fayetteville's first neighborhood associations (no fees are required for membership). Location I: Three of Fayetteville?s premier schools (and their park areas, to include playgrounds, trails, disc golf, and a track), over 85 commercial establishments (including many restaurants, two grocery stores, banks, shopping, and more) are on Starr Drive or just around the corner. Location II: Crossover (Hwy 265) and Mission (Hwy 45) provide quick access to the North, the South, downtown Fayetteville, and the University of Arkansas. Location III: Turn right off Starr Drive and you are well on your way to the Ozark Mountains, Eureka Springs, the Buffalo River, Beaver Lake, Hobbs Park and more. Beauty: The large lot is in itself serene and is surrounded by beautiful views out any window or off any porch or deck, including Jasper Springs Ranch (40 acres), many beautifully landscaped estate homes along Starr Drive, two spring-fed ponds (5-acre and 1 acre), and grand hills to the west and southwest. History: This is Lot #1 in the Huntington Place Subdivision which dates to 1978. The original Huntington division owners were unable to sell this property, perhaps the division?s prime lot, because it did not pass the perc test, a requirement to install a septic system. The lot was unattended and a neighborhood eyesore for 15 years, at which time it was purchased in 1993 by neighbors across Starr Drive to the south. The new owners did significant work to the property to make it a pleasant green space for neighbors to enjoy these past 30 years. A city sewer line was installed in the 1980s along the N/S portion of Starr Drive, just across the street from the lot. In 2017, the owner requested ?an extension of the City?s sewerage system beyond the City limits to property located on North Starr Drive.? The request was approved by the City Council of the City of Fayetteville on 6/6/2017 (File Number: 2017-0282). Zoning R-A: This county zoning allows one home/acre.
