514 Pierce Street

Solid mid-century single-family home in a hard-to-find, centrally located Denton neighborhood. This 1961 craftsman-style residence sits on a generous 0.27-acre lot just minutes from downtown Denton and UNT. 1,480 square-foot single-story layout with two bedrooms, two full baths, classic masonry fireplace and an oversized living space that flows to an open yard. Ample lot size and mature trees give room for outdoor living, expansion, or outbuildings. Vinyl flooring and original character details mix with practical systems that keep everyday living comfortable. Zoning Opportunity: R7 - Moderate-Density Residential District One of the biggest advantages of this property is its R7 zoning designation with the City of Denton. R7 isn’t just single-family residential it’s a moderate-density residential district tailored for a range of compatible housing and limited neighborhood-serving uses. Under R7: Permitted residential uses include single-family detached homes, townhomes, duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes, allowing flexibility for development or redevelopment. Commercial uses designed to support the neighborhood such as day cares (by right) are allowed, and banks, offices, and small retail are possible with a Specific Use Permit (SUP). Laundries and similar neighborhood-oriented services would require an SUP. This zoning makes 514 Pierce Street a smart play for owner-occupiers considering accessory development, builders looking for a redevelopment site, or investors planning moderate-density infill. Its location and flexibility put it in a unique category: classic neighborhood home with forward-looking land use potential. Buyer to pay for survey.
