Durham Infill Land | Zoned for Up to 20 Homes | ±1.25 AC

Investment Overview

1202 & 1206 Ellis Road is a ±1.25-acre corner assemblage at Ellis Road and Riddle Road. In April 2025, Durham City Council rezoned it to RS-M(D) (Case Z2400013) for up to 20 single-family and/or duplex units. The rezoning is complete and its conditions are already set, so builders can price the site from day one: right-in/right-out access on Ellis Road, Riddle Road access with a westbound left-turn lane, a 10-foot shared-use path along both frontages, and a 10-foot right-of-way dedication on Riddle Road. Final lot count is subject to City site plan and subdivision approval. The site is inside Durham city limits near NC-147 and I-885, between Downtown Durham and Research Triangle Park. It fits small and mid-size builders, build-to-rent duplex investors, and infill developers looking for an entitled site at a manageable scale.
