Geographical Information

One thing that stands out for a lot of people is how much farmland this town retains, as well as the number of Colonial homes that still stand. Developments that blend in harmoniously with the local terrain are certain to be winners in this area. Besides a beautiful landscape, there are several other assets this community offers.

About 15,000 people called this townhome in 2010, up from around 14,000 in 1994, reflecting gradual but steady population growth. Easily accessible to Providence and less than an hour from Boston, this town offers a great location for both new housing and commercial buildings.

Rivers run through this town, including the Taunton and Lees. These rivers empty into Narragansett or Hope Bays, offering beautiful coastal scenery. As far as roads go, you'll find Route 118 and 6 quite convenient, putting most areas of town within easy reach.

A short drive to Providence provides access to regional rail service, and the Southeastern Regional Transit Authority has its buses running in the area. These transportation options are likely to be a major draw for anyone who takes an interest in your development. As many prefer to live as car-free as possible, these options make that choice easier.

Smokerise and Ocean Grove are two of the most heavily-populated areas in town, with most of the rest of the community being rural. Because so much of the area remains rural, the land is very easy to find and develop as you wish.

What Could You Build?

Homes

Although the town has yet to see new construction gated communities, they are very popular elsewhere in the region. Should you decide to build homes for sale or rent that have smart home features, you'll probably entice interested parties very easily. In addition to popular New England-style homes, you'll find that one-story homes also rank high on many home shoppers' lists, especially with open floor plans.

Apartments

This area also has a lot of apartment properties nearby, representing the diversity of choices that renters want to have available. Although traditional low-rise buildings remain popular, there is a demand for rowhouse and townhouse-style units that offer a modest patio or yard space. A development close to retail areas that includes units in these styles is likely to be a safe choice.

Commercial

Although developments that offer housing that is in demand are always a sure bet, you don't want to overlook the many possibilities that exist for commercial property. The location matters just as much for these properties, and you'll enjoy all the possibilities available that will make it easier for you to appeal to local prospects.

Properties with good frontage and plenty of extra space for parking will open up a wealth of possibilities. Office space never goes out of demand, and even lots of as little as an acre can make a difference in constructing the right development. Designing the building to offer distinct, larger suite areas helps provide a competitive advantage.

Retail

Retail space offers a wealth of possibilities to suit the needs of both locals and residents of surrounding towns. Offering a flexible building that allows tenants a lot of choice in how they put the space to use is a good way to make sure you attract the best long-term renters. Retail spaces that allow renters to adapt their suites to suit their companies' needs are likely to have a broad appeal.

Flexibility matters when it comes to retail spaces, and choosing a lot that allows you to be flexible will make a major difference with your development. Your development will need to fill a need for the area to have the best chance of getting ideal prices.

Regardless of how you intend to develop your property, having help as you go through the process will make a difference. Give our experts a call, and we'll have you on the way to buying the right property.
