Prime Ballard development opportunity zoned NC1-40 (M2) in one of Seattle’s most active growth corridors. Ideal for developers or investors seeking future upside with potential for multiple units and mixed-use possibilities (buyer to verify). Surrounded by ongoing redevelopment, new construction, and strong neighborhood demand, this location continues to appreciate. The existing structure offers great bones for a substantial renovation or reposition, creating an additional opportunity for an experienced flipper or builder with vision. Fixer property sold as-is. No interior access available. Value is primarily in the zoning, lot, and long-term redevelopment potential. Located in a true Walker’s Paradise with a Walk Score of 92, just steps to Ballard’s shops, dining, transit, and everyday amenities. Rare chance to secure a flexible asset in one of Seattle’s most sought-after neighborhoods with both near-term and long-term upside.
