±2 AC Ground Lease – U.S. 1 Retail Pad 27201 S Dixie Hwy 1.99 Acres of Commercial Land for Lease in Homestead, FL 33032

This ±2-acre ground lease opportunity is located at 27201 S. Dixie Highway (U.S. 1) in Naranja, Florida—positioned within one of South Miami-Dade’s fastest-growing submarkets. The site offers exceptional visibility with approximately 1,248 feet of frontage on South Dixie Highway, one of the region’s major north-south commercial arteries.

The parcel is part of a busy, well-established retail center with a strong mix of national and regional tenants including Fresco y Más, T-Mobile, Popeyes, AutoZone, CareMax, and Meat Giant. The property benefits from a signalized intersection, multiple access points, and consistent drive-by traffic counts, making it an ideal site for QSR, automotive, freestanding retail, urgent care/medical, or neighborhood service providers.

Surging Residential Density
What truly sets this site apart is the tremendous residential development immediately surrounding the property. Within steps of the parcel are the following newly constructed communities:

Vista Sur Apartments – 226 units (Richman Group) – Adjacent to subject property

Ambar Trail Apartments – 342 units – Located directly across the street

Harmony Parc – 105 two-story townhomes (by The NAR) – Also across the street

These three new communities collectively add 673 new housing units to the immediate trade area, with more residential projects in the pipeline nearby. This massive influx of new residents is creating an underserved, high-demand environment for daily-needs retail and service operators.

Flexible Zoning – BU-1A + UC-MC Overlay
The property carries a rare dual zoning designation of BU-1A (Limited Business District) and UC-MC (Urban Center Mixed-Use Corridor):

BU-1A permits a wide variety of commercial uses, including general retail, grocery, financial services, QSRs, pharmacies, and medical offices. Building height up to 4 stories (45 feet), with standard FAR and setbacks.

UC-MC provides an urban overlay allowing higher density and mixed-use development in walkable formats. It promotes transit-friendly, pedestrian-oriented design with flexibility for future vertical development or long-term redevelopment plays.

Together, these zoning designations allow for short-term retail pad development while preserving upside for value-add, infill, or mixed-use strategies.
