5090–5094–5130 E. McKinney St., Denton, TX presents a rare ±8.5-acre assemblage combining R7 (Residential 7) and MN (Mixed-Use Neighborhood) zoning—delivering scale, flexibility, and entitlement certainty within city limits of Denton. This is a true mixed-density development opportunity positioned along one of Denton’s most active growth corridors.
The ±6.7-acre R7 tract allows single-family detached homes, townhomes, duplexes, triplexes, and fourplexes—ideal for missing-middle housing, build-to-rent communities, or small-lot residential product. The adjacent ±1.7-acre MN parcel supports neighborhood retail, medical or professional office, live-work concepts, multifamily, civic space, and limited commercial uses. Together, the zoning framework enables a cohesive master-planned concept integrating residential rooftops with neighborhood-serving commercial activation.
Strategically located along high-visibility E. McKinney Street, the property sits directly across from Billy Ryan High School, generating consistent daily traffic and long-term residential demand support. Access to Mayhill Road and Loop 288 enhances connectivity to employment centers, healthcare, and established neighborhoods—supporting strong absorption fundamentals.
This 8.5-acre footprint allows developers to control both density and activation within one unified plan. Execute a phased residential rollout while activating commercial frontage to serve incoming rooftops. The entitlement structure reduces zoning risk and shortens development timelines, allowing focus on engineering, site planning, and capital deployment.
Mid-size entitled tracts offering both residential density and mixed-use frontage are increasingly limited in Denton. For developers and investors seeking corridor positioning, scalable yield, and product flexibility in a high-growth North Texas submarket, this assemblage represents a developer-ready asset with measurable execution-driven upside.
Directions: from I-35 E. go toward exit 462 toward Mayhill Rd, onto S-I 35 E. Go for 1.0 mi. Turn right onto E. Mckinney St (FM426). Go for 0.4 mi, Turn right. Go for 0.2 mi. Destination is on the right. See GPS for different routes.
