The 0.69-acre parcel has already undergone significant re -development, featuring a three -bedroom single-family residence, stormwater retention areas, and an engineered septic system.
The property owner has made a substantial investment, and the re -development is currently at 90 % completion. Throughout the planning process, the applicant has collaborated with
Currituck County, Albemarle Regional Health Services, and the design engineer to formulate a project that strategically minimizes environmental impacts on -site.
