Residential Land for Sale in Fort Washington, Maryland

Subdivision and Development Potential This property offers substantial development opportunities under its current RE zoning designation, which permits one dwelling unit per acre (1 du/ac), allowing for the creation of approximately six estate lots-each requiring percolation testing and well installation. Alternatively, a Special Exception may be pursued to allow for Senior Detached Housing, which increases the allowable density to six dwelling units per acre (6 du/ac), supporting the development of up to 35 detached units. The conceptual design is based on the development principles of the R-55 zoning classification, with proposed lot sizes at a minimum of 6,500 square feet. It is important to note that the preliminary concept and resource plans indicate environmental constraints, including wetlands and a stream, which may impact the total number of buildable lots. A comprehensive feasibility study by your civil engineer is recommended during the study period to assess these conditions and refine the layout. The site is 100% wooded and includes identified wetlands and a stream per a formal Wetlands Report. Additionally, a WSSC right-of-way traverses the property. Preliminary engineering work has begun, including a concept plan and natural resource inventory, with available documentation accessible online. Please note: The property may not be accessed without a scheduled appointment-unauthorized entry is not permitted.
