TL;DR: The Whithorn Lane lot in Bella Vista, AR is a level 0.34-acre homesite listed at $15,000, with major road frontage and no separate subdivision HOA. The listing states no zoning, utilities or setbacks, so every building requirement is to be confirmed with the City of Bella Vista and the Bella Vista POA. Cameron Torabi of Mason Capital Group can walk a builder through the steps at 479-925-3333.
What does the listing say can be built on the Whithorn Lane lot?
The listing describes the lot as a level, ready-to-build homesite and names three intended uses: a future primary residence, a second home or a long-term hold. It is Lot 5, Block 8 in the Whithorn subdivision, level, with major road frontage.
It does not state zoning, utilities, setbacks or flood status, and it does not say what size or type of home the lot will carry. A builder should treat the listing as a starting description, not a permission. The parcel is presented on the Whithorn Lane page.
What must be confirmed with the city and the POA?
Everything that governs construction is to be confirmed with the City of Bella Vista and the Bella Vista POA before you commit. The listing says the community is governed by the Bella Vista Property Owners Association and that the lot carries no separate subdivision HOA, so the POA is the second authority to consult beside the city.
- Zoning and permitted use, to be confirmed with the City of Bella Vista.
- Setbacks and any limits on size or placement, to be confirmed with the City of Bella Vista and the Bella Vista POA.
- Utilities and how they reach the lot, to be confirmed with the City of Bella Vista and the Bella Vista POA.
- Flood status, to be confirmed with the City of Bella Vista.
- Review requirements or covenants that apply to a new home, to be confirmed with the Bella Vista POA.
What is the path from purchase to a finished home?
The path runs in six steps: parcel package, city and POA answers, survey, plan, offer, then closing and permits. The order matters because early answers can change later choices.
- Request the parcel package and walk the lot with the listing agent.
- Ask the City of Bella Vista and the Bella Vista POA each item in the list above, and keep the answers in writing.
- Order a survey and confirm the boundaries of Lot 5, Block 8.
- Settle utilities and access, then choose a plan that fits the lot as the city and POA allow.
- Make an offer that reflects what you have confirmed, with your attorney's guidance on any contingencies.
- Close, then apply for the approvals your plan requires, and begin work.
The listing calls the topography level, which a builder will read as a favorable starting condition. It does not claim the lot is permitted or serviced, so the confirmations above come first.
