Great development opportunity, nearly 1.5 acres ideally situated next to light rail, commercial property on one side and residential on the other. Light rail runs along Capitol with 2 stops nearby, great commute location. Starbucks is one block away with plenty of restaurants and retail nearby. East Side Union school district, Berryessa Union elementary school district.
Zoned R 1-8. Many possibilities. The San Jose planning department told me that “The minimum lot size for the R-1-8 Zone is 5,445 SF. So yes, 1207 N Capitol Ave is able to be subdivided.” It may be possible to change zoning and build mixed use development, commercial, or other uses however we cannot make any guarantees for City approval – buyer to investigate options with the City of San Jose.
