About this home
Investors, developers, and owner-occupants—don't miss this opportunity! 229 Cottage Street offers flexibility, whether you're looking to develop, invest, or enjoy a large in-town lot. Located in Sanford's Urban Zone, this property comes with exceptional potential. The Urban Zone allows a maximum road setback of just 20 feet, no density or height limits, and requires only a 33-foot-wide right of way for projects with up to 15 units. The seller has already completed a wetland delineation. There appears to be sufficient room for a right of way along the side of the garage, providing access to the land behind the home and perfect for future development. The main house features 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, a full basement, a sun porch, and a large kitchen with a center island. The separate apartment offers 1 bedroom and 1 bath, with private parking and access behind the garage, ensuring privacy for both the main home and tenant. Additional features include a newly installed forced hot water boiler and a heated garage with its own forced hot air system. Whether you're looking for an income property, a development project, or a place to call home with room to grow, this is the one for you. Also listed as multi family MLS#1627033 but can be converted to single family.
