Description

This prominent 1.09-acre commercial parcel (Barnstable County Assessor Map 41, Parcel 46) is situated directly on heavily trafficked Route 28 in South Yarmouth, offering excellent visibility and access in the heart of Cape Cod’s tourist and year-round market. The site currently features a single-story retail building (approximately 3,250 sq ft, originally constructed circa 1994, formerly housing a laundromat/laundry center) with paved parking and public water access.
Strategically zoned in the B-1 and B-2 Business Districts, with HMOD-1 (Hotel/Motel Overlay District 1) and VCOD-3 (Village Center Overlay District 3 – Family Destination and Entertainment) overlays, the property supports a broad array of high-value development options. These include mixed-use retail/commercial, financial services, restaurants/coffee shops, family-oriented entertainment, hospitality, and high-density multi-family residential (including affordable housing via Chapter 40B Comprehensive Permit). The overlays provide significant incentives such as increased building heights, reduced dimensional requirements, by-right mixed-use development, flexible parking (including garages), and design standards that promote pedestrian-friendly, walkable village character.
Ideal for national tenants or similar drive-thru/retail concepts, as well as integrated mixed-use projects combining ground-floor commercial with upper-level residential units. The location benefits from strong regional traffic, proximity to local amenities, beaches, and infrastructure, making it highly attractive for year-round economic development, tourism support, and job creation.
This flexible site is shovel-ready for redevelopment and represents a rare opportunity to capitalize on Yarmouth’s zoning incentives for vibrant, resilient community-oriented projects. Perfect for investors, developers, or end-users seeking high-visibility commercial or mixed-use space on Cape Cod.
