Mixed-Use Land for Sale in Port St. Joe, Florida

Welcome to historic Port St Joe! Now that the structure at 186 Ave E has been freshly razed, you have a vacant lot so versatile, you'll need a vision board to narrow down the possibilities: X-Flood Zone (rubber ducky stays in the tub), sized 50x118 ft, current R-2B zoning and a Future Land Use so bright, you'll need shades (marked Mixed Use per Ordinance 553-yes, it's official). Think of it as a choose-your-own-adventure story. R-2B zoning is the Swiss Army knife of urban planning. Go classic with a single-family home, get creative with a multi-family palace, or community-minded with a guest house, clinic, or sanctuary for retired cats. Dream of opening a low-traffic service business? The city's got your back (Nix disco bowling alley or drive-thru goat rodeo off the list). Build up to 60 ft tall, cover 60% of the lot, and stack up to 7 units/acre. Setbacks? 15 ft front and back, and side yards as slim as 7 ft. For the real estate overachiever who thinks small is for mortals, mixed-use FLU lets you go full developer mode: 15 res units/acre and commercial footprints that gulp up 90% of the lot. Location? 2/10's of a mile from shopping (snacks!!), under 1/2 mile from restaurants (taco Tuesday, anyone?), and 6/10's mile to the Washington St Rec Center and Peters Park-where you can shoot hoops, hit the walking trail, or judge other people's picnic setups. The marina, fishing spots, and Bay are a quick bike ride away, so bring sunscreen and your best fish tales. Don't hang your hat on the seller's current property taxes-rate changes occur faster than autocorrect turns "yes" into "yeehaw" post-sale/improvement (basis change). The current structure? The house that should not be, won't. The city called it unsalvageable (Ordinance 296); sellers signed off on demo (it is authorized and slated, but not dated). Translation: clean slate, zero haunted house vibes. Dive into the official code here:
