This 23.79 acre tract at 3011 Moore Avenue in Portland, Texas presents a rare investment opportunity in one of the Coastal Bend’s fastest growing markets. Located at the prominent northwest corner of Moore Avenue (FM 893) and Stark Road, the property enjoys dual frontage and excellent visibility along two important thoroughfares. Directly adjacent to W.C. Andrews Elementary School, the site is ideally positioned for future commercial development and well-equipped to serve Portland’s expanding population.
The land is fully developable, with no encroachments within setback areas and a generally flat topography that ranges from 36 to 34 feet above sea level, sloping south toward Doyle Ditch. Importantly, the property lies outside of any FEMA-designated floodplain. Utility infrastructure is readily available including potable water, sanitary sewer, electric and storm water drainage—all extended to support nearby residential and school developments. Residential natural gas is accessible just west of the site.
Currently zoned R-6, the site is eligible for Planned Unit Development (PUD) zoning upon city approval, allowing for a wide range of commercial uses. TXDOT is currently engineering improvements to FM 893 that will expand the roadway from two to five lanes, with construction expected to begin in 2025. In addition, the City of Portland plans to reconstruct Stark Road as a three-lane collector road with sidewalks, curbs, gutters and underground utilities—further enhancing the property’s accessibility and appeal.
Currently, the property includes two homes and a barn. One home is rented and the site is under a grazing lease; both tenants will vacate within 60 days of closing. While the sellers will retain all owned minerals (91.67%), they are waiving all surface rights for mineral access. Subdivision opportunities are available, with owners open to selling 10–11 acres off the north end. Contact the broker, Matt Cravey, at 361.221.1915 for more information.
