Description

Beautiful 6 +/- acres right on covington hwy, zoned residential. Great opportunity for commercial location. The land already has utilities on the site. The current zoning is R-85 (Single-family District), but based on the comprehensive plan, it will be rezoned as NC (neighborhood center), which allows you to develop affordable housing and even MF. NC density allows up to 24 units per AC, which is very attractive for Dekalb county.Beautiful 6 +/- acres right on covington hwy, zoned residential. Great opportunity for commercial location.
