TL;DR: 1716 W Holly Street in Fayetteville, AR is a 2.34-acre Residential-Office site listed at $1,800,000, with public water and sewer on-site per the listing. To develop or build here, call Cameron Torabi, Principal Broker, Mason Capital Group Real Estate Investment & Trust, at 479-925-3333.
What can be built at 1716 W Holly Street in Fayetteville?
The listing says the R-O zoning permits residential, office or mixed-use, with density of up to 24 units per acre.
It estimates roughly 50-plus units by right, subject to setback, height and parking standards. That figure is the listing's estimate and not an approval. The city planning department decides what is permitted, so confirm the zoning, the density and the standards in writing before you rely on any unit count.
The listing describes the site as "level, cleared", with major road frontage on W Holly Street. The listing says public water and sewer are on-site and that no infrastructure buildout is required. It also lists no HOA and no flood zone.
What is already on the site at 1716 W Holly Street?
An existing 8,218-square-foot four-unit building stands on the parcel. The listing calls it a two-level 1990 quadruplex on a slab with central heat and air.
The listing says the building provides holding income while entitling, or an owner-user footprint. For a developer, that raises a planning choice: keep it during approvals, or plan its removal as part of the project. Neither choice is presented as settled, so a buyer should assess the structure and any occupancy on its own facts.
What is the development path in Fayetteville, step by step?
The path runs from verification to entitlement to construction. Each step below should be confirmed locally.
- Confirm zoning, permitted uses, density and the setback, height and parking standards with the Fayetteville planning department.
- Order a survey and title work, and confirm the utilities on-site with the providers.
- Test the concept: a residential, office or mixed-use program, and a realistic unit count.
- Assess the existing building and decide whether to hold it, adapt it or plan around it.
- Confirm the Opportunity Zone question with a tax advisor, and the financing plan, including whether to discuss seller financing, which the listing offers case by case.
- Prepare and submit the city approvals your concept requires, then move to design and construction.
Mason Capital Group does not give legal or tax advice. A buyer should bring an attorney and a tax advisor into steps one, two and five.
How does Mason Capital Group's development service work with brokerage?
The development service helps a client move a site from concept toward approval and construction, and it sits beside the brokerage that sells the land.
Mason Capital Group serves Northwest Arkansas with brokerage, development, property management and investment advisory under one roof. The same firm that lists the parcel can talk through the concept, the questions for the city and the options for the existing building. The contact is Cameron Torabi, the firm's Principal Broker, who brings 30+ years of Northwest Arkansas real estate expertise and reports $2.4B+ in cumulative transaction activity (estimated combined personal, team and affiliated-brokerage activity over 30+ years; not independently verified; not indicative of current assets under management or future results). Learn more about the firm.
If the existing building stays through approvals, the firm's property management service can operate it as holding income. That is a separate service and a separate decision.
Why does this location matter to a builder?
The parcel is 0.1 mi from Razorback Stadium and 0.8 mi from the University of Arkansas campus, per the listing. Dickson Street is described as walking distance.
Those anchors give a residential or mixed-use project a clear neighborhood context. Read the town guide above for more on the city, then judge the demand drivers against your own underwriting.
