FM 1314 Gateway Development - 45.717 AC
Executive Summary
Overview:
This offering presents approximately 45.7 acres of prime unrestricted land in Montgomery County, Texas, divided into three tracts. The property is unimproved and unzoned, providing buyers maximum flexibility. Ideal for developers planning residential or commercial projects, or investors seeking strategic land holdings, this acreage is perfectly situated within a rapidly growing region. The seller is open to offers for individual parcels or the entire assemblage, welcoming all qualified proposals.
Location & Accessibility:
Strategically positioned near the intersection of State Highway 242 (SH 242) and FM 1314 in the Conroe area (ZIP 77302), the property benefits from outstanding regional connectivity and visibility. SH 242 is a significant east-west corridor connecting I-45 to US 59, linking The Woodlands/Conroe area with the Kingwood/Porter communities just north of the Grand Parkway (TX-99). Easy access to major highways—I-45 (west) and US 59/I-69 (east)—offers direct routes into Houston. FM 1314, bordering the area, has recently been widened to accommodate increasing traffic and connects south to the Grand Parkway (TX-99) interchange in Porter.
Practically, the site is a short drive from The Woodlands via SH 242 west to I-45, and Lake Conroe/Conroe City Center via I-45 north. The Woodlands, a renowned master-planned community and employment hub, lies approximately 12–15 miles west, while Conroe, Montgomery County’s seat and one of the fastest-growing cities in the U.S., is directly north. This location is central to Montgomery County's expansive growth, ideally serving existing populations and emerging developments.
Surrounding Development & Growth:
The immediate vicinity is experiencing significant growth driven by major master-planned communities:
• Evergreen – A 740-acre master-planned community by Shea Homes at SH 242 and FM 1314. Evergreen, launched in 2022, anticipates approximately 2,000 homes at completion, significantly increasing local population density.
• Artavia – A 2,842-acre master-planned community just east along SH 242, planned for over 6,500 homes. Since opening in 2019, Artavia has rapidly attracted residents with extensive parks, lakes, and commercial developments, including a planned Conroe ISD school and 120 acres designated for retail and commercial uses.
• Mavera – A new 820+ acre master-planned community by Pulte Homes along SH 242 near I-45, projecting over 3,000 homes with comprehensive amenities and educational facilities. Smaller nearby communities, such as Montgomery Creek Ranch and Gleneagles, further bolster residential growth.
• Grand Texas – A 630-acre sports and entertainment district featuring the Big Rivers Waterpark & Adventures theme park, located at SH 242 and US 59 in New Caney, approximately 8 miles east. This district draws substantial regional visitation, stimulating ancillary commercial opportunities.
This concentration of residential and commercial projects firmly positions the SH 242/FM 1314 intersection as a central growth nexus. The robust development activity underscores strong demand, positioning this property ideally for complementary developments like retail centers, additional residential projects, or community services.
Development Potential:
Unrestricted and unzoned, the property allows diverse development opportunities, free from typical entitlement hurdles found within city limits. Potential uses include:
• Residential Development: Suitable for single-family subdivisions, master-planned communities, or build-to-rent townhomes to address robust local housing demand.
• Commercial & Retail: Excellent potential for retail centers, grocery stores, mixed-use commercial developments, or hospitality businesses serving local residents, commuters, and tourists drawn by nearby attractions.
• Light Industrial / Business Park: Ideal for warehouse, distribution center, or industrial park development, benefiting from convenient proximity to major highways and unrestricted zoning.
• Mixed-Use Development: Ample space allows integrated residential, commercial, and recreational developments, maximizing land utilization and community appeal.
• Land Banking: Offers strategic investment potential, given regional population growth, rising land values, and diminishing availability of similarly sized unrestricted parcels.
Offering Terms:
The sale terms are flexible. Interested parties can purchase all three tracts totaling approximately 45.7 acres, individual parcels, or smaller portions tailored to specific project requirements. The seller welcomes creative proposals to facilitate acquisitions that meet buyers' development or investment objectives.
