An important investment point is the potential for land development. According to the current spatial planning regulations, there is a possibility of demolition of existing buildings and construction of up to eight residential units, which makes this property especially attractive for developers and investors looking for a high-yield project in Novigrad. Ownership is clean, 1/1, with full documentation and free of encumbrances. The owner is also open to the exchange of real estate, including an apartment with a corresponding surcharge.
