478 & 490 First Road West

Property Description

The Province of Ontario is reversing its November 2022 decision to expand Hamilton's urban boundary and is removing +/- 2,200 Hectares (5,434 Acres) of land supply for future housing stock. This unprecedented turn of events truly makes this a rare opportunity to acquire a land parcel of meaningful scale for near-term, residential, low & medium density development. Inside an approved Secondary Plan, the property is under a planning review / draft plan submission for +/- 195 units (single detached and townhouses) on 21.50 acres of Developable Land Area. The existing draft plan application can be approved in 12-months more or less for a builder seeking a reduced development timeline and a faster ROI. Or, the parcel is ready to be reimagined with higher density in line with the City’s vision to not expand its urban boundary and build-up instead of build-out.
