Property Description

Secure a rare footprint in the heart of Covington’s Downtown Master Plan area. This high-yield development site consists of two adjacent parcels totaling ~0.96 acres(41,265 sqft) , specifically positioned to benefit from the city's aggressive push for mid-rise, compact, and pedestrian-oriented housing. Optimal Zoning (MHO - Mixed Housing/Office)-Designed for high-density infill, the MHO zone supports a variety of housing types, including multi-family, townhomes, and cottage housing, as well as professional office space. The City of Covington is actively incentivizing redevelopment to meet its 2044 target of 4,310 new housing units. While a preliminary 14-unit townhome plan proposed, current state and local trends favor even higher density for projects near transit and commercial hubs. Level & Paved: Minimal site preparation is required compared to raw land, with paved access already in place. Proximity to Lakepointe Urban Village which is set to deliver tons of retail spaces and residential units. The site is also directly adjacent to Jenkins Creek Park, which is undergoing major 2025 improvements, including a new main entrance and parking on Wax Road, significantly increasing local walkability and neighborhood appeal. Tons of Potentials! Buyer to verify all information with City of Covington!
