7214 Lawyers Road ~1-acre redevelopment parcel on a high-growth corridor
Approximately 1-acre parcel on Lawyers Road in the high-growth East Charlotte corridor. Adjacent and nearby parcels have been positioned for medium-density residential redevelopment — the adjacent 2± acre Lawyers Rd site is currently being marketed as a 19-unit townhome development site. 7214 offers the same access to the Independence Boulevard corridor and the same growth fundamentals.
Parcel
Land
0.974 acres (approximately 42,418 sq ft). Frontage on Lawyers Road. FEMA Zone X — outside the 0.2% annual chance floodplain (Panel 3710458300K).
Public record
Parcel ID 135-013-12 in the Mecklenburg County tax and GIS systems. Boundary survey and plat available through the county GIS portal (POLARIS).
Zoning
Currently single-family residential. A rezoning to a comparable medium-density classification is the natural play given the corridor trajectory; no entitlement work has been undertaken on this parcel.
Corridor
Lawyers Road is part of the broader Independence Boulevard growth submarket in east Charlotte. The corridor has seen sustained absorption of attached-residential and small-lot multifamily product as Charlotte's housing demand has pushed development outward from uptown.
The aerial shows the parcel's setting at a glance: a roughly one-acre lot with road frontage on Lawyers Road, directly adjacent to an attached-residential development of similar scale to what comparable corridor sites are being marketed for.
Adjacent comp
The adjacent 2± acre Lawyers Rd site is currently being marketed as a 19-unit townhome development site, positioned as a medium-density redevelopment opportunity on the same corridor.
Submarket
East Charlotte continues to absorb attached-residential product at price points below the uptown and South End submarkets, with access to the Independence Boulevard arterial and the broader Mecklenburg employment base.
Buyer profile
Small to mid-size developers pursuing attached residential product (townhomes, attached single-family, low-rise multifamily); investors building corridor assemblages; builders seeking shovel-adjacent inventory.
The opportunity
7214 offers two clean paths for a developer or investor.
Single-lot redevelopment
Pursue a rezoning to a medium-density classification consistent with the corridor trajectory, and develop a small attached-residential project on the 1-acre site.
Assemblage
Combine 7214 with one or more adjacent parcels to create a larger development tract on Lawyers Road, with the scale advantages that come with it.
