Entitled Development Site

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a ±2.19-acre development site in the heart of Sussex Borough with an established by-right approval to construct 25 apartment units. Located at 11–17 Harrison Street, this offering represents one of the few entitled multifamily development opportunities in northern New Jersey, providing developers with a clear path toward construction while minimizing entitlement risk.

The property spans the full frontage between 11 and 17 Harrison Street and features a practical development layout with direct road frontage, municipal utilities available at the street, and a site configuration well suited for multifamily construction. Situated within walking distance of downtown Sussex Borough's shops, restaurants, and local amenities, the location offers an attractive setting for future residents while benefiting from convenient regional access.

In 2024, Sussex Borough established the Mixed Use (MU) District specifically to encourage redevelopment of this property. The zoning permits multifamily residential, townhomes, and mixed-use development featuring ground-floor commercial space with residential units above. The existing zoning supports a compliant 25-unit apartment development without the uncertainty commonly associated with rezoning or variance applications.

The seller has completed a substantial amount of preliminary due diligence, including architectural concepts, civil engineering studies, and environmental investigations designed to streamline the development process. Environmental Site Assessment and Wetlands reports completed in June 2025 indicate a clean environmental profile, reducing one of the most significant unknowns often associated with redevelopment projects. Preliminary conceptual plans illustrate the potential for a four-story residential building designed to complement Sussex Borough's character while delivering modern, market-rate housing.

With established development rights, favorable zoning, completed preliminary studies, and a location positioned for continued growth, 11–17 Harrison Street presents an outstanding investment opportunity for multifamily developers, builders, and investors seeking a shovel-ready project with significant upside in Sussex County.
