About this home

Rare downtown development opportunity at one of Stratford's most prominent and high-exposure intersections. Located at 20-28 Erie Street, this vacant lot with C3 zoning offers exceptional flexibility for a wide range of commercial and mixed-use redevelopment options. The property was previously home to a mixed-use building with commercial space at street level and residential units above, making it an ideal candidate for a similar redevelopment concept that aligns perfectly with the surrounding downtown fabric. Positioned at a highly visible corner in the heart of Stratford, the site benefits from strong pedestrian and vehicle traffic, excellent sightlines, and close proximity to restaurants, theatres, shops, and all of the vibrancy that downtown Stratford is known for. The current owner has preliminary concept plans for a potential rebuild, which can be made available to interested buyers upon request to help accelerate due diligence and visioning. An outstanding opportunity for developers, investors, and owner-occupiers looking to establish a presence in one of Southwestern Ontario's most dynamic and culturally rich downtowns.
