Rare opportunity to own a beautiful, private 7.07-acre wooded lot in the desirable Hickory Ridge subdivision of Gaithersburg (20882). This premier building site has been held by the same owner since 1988 and has never been improved with a home—offering a blank canvas for your custom dream residence in a mature, established neighborhood. The property already features a drilled well installed in the mid-to-late 1980s. Regarding septic: historical records show an existing water-table test and two successful perc tests from 1980 that previously supported an approved septic area. The Montgomery County Health Department has indicated that at least one additional perc test is required to confirm suitable soil conditions near a previously failed nearby test (E28C). An updated perc test plan reflecting current topography and site conditions may determine whether further testing is needed. Buyers are encouraged to conduct their own due diligence with the Health Department. Enjoy the privacy, mature trees, and natural setting of this spacious parcel while being convenient to local amenities, schools, and major routes. Ideal for the buyer seeking acreage and the freedom to design a one-of-a-kind home.
