20500 E Bundschu Road, Independence, Missouri
Description
78.33± acres in NE Independence within the Fort Osage School District present a prime development opportunity. Located at the corner of Bundschu Road and Powell Road, the property offers quick connections to both Little Blue Parkway and MO-291, making it convenient for regional access. It is less than 10 minutes from I-70, providing excellent connectivity for future residents, builders, and services. The gently rolling tract is well-suited for a residential subdivision or estate-lot community in a highly desirable area.
Infrastructure is already in place to support future development. A sewer main runs the full length of the western property line, situated just outside the boundary on the neighboring property. Two water mains also serve the property: a 20-inch iron water main runs along Powell Road on the eastern boundary, while a 12-inch steel water main extends along the southern boundary and terminates at a fire hydrant on Bundschu Road. Electrical lines follow the southern boundary, and blacktop road frontage extends along both the southern and eastern boundaries, providing convenient access.
With its combination of size, utilities, access, frontage, and school district appeal, this property checks all the boxes for phased build-out or the creation of a signature residential community. Acreage is subject to survey; buyer to verify zoning, utilities, and school boundaries.
