LIVE MAP:

0.26 acre lot located within the growth corridor of Ascension Street, the main thoroughfare that connects developing Horizon City to northeast El Paso and US 62/180 (Montana Ave). This is the strongest part of the parcel. TxDOT identifies Horizon Boulevard / FM 1281 from SH 20 to Ascension Street as a 9.4-mile corridor expected to see increased growth, with multiple developments in planning or construction. This property is located in Horizon City Unit 13 outside the incorporated area and has unrestricted zoning and is not governed or part of the Horizon City HOA. So you can develop for residential or commercial purposes, or both. Other people have fenced off lots nearby for storage yards and shipping businesses. Great year-round access only 907 FT from pavement on a well traveled dirt road and 5 miles to Horizon City’s core center with gas, restaurants, banking, and other city amenities.  For more information on this parcel, see the Investor Property Report below that we used to identify and qualify the property before purchase.

Investor Property Report:

For H784-013-0240-0060 / Horizon City Estates #13 Lot 6, my working conclusion is:

This looks like an unincorporated El Paso County / Horizon-area subdivision lot, not clearly inside Horizon City zoning. That means the key controls are likely county permits, plat/subdivision status, restrictions, utilities, floodplain, and road access — not normal city zoning.

The lot is about 11,308 sq ft / 0.26 acre, near Kingsbury Ave, Bancor St, and N. Ascension St. It is near a long-term growth corridor, but it appears speculative unless utilities and road improvements reach the immediate area.

Detailed Guidance

1. Inside Horizon City, ETJ, or unincorporated?

Horizon City publishes both a zoning map and an ETJ map. The city says zoning districts are established by its official zoning map, and its ETJ map was approved with roughly a one-mile radius. (Horizon City)

Your parcel is in Horizon City Estates Unit 13, near Ascension/Kingsbury. From the subdivision map and the city zoning map, it does not appear to be in the core incorporated zoning area shown on the Horizon City zoning map. I would treat it as likely unincorporated or ETJ-adjacent until confirmed by Horizon City Planning at 915-852-1046. (Horizon City)

2. Current zoning designation

I do not see a reliable parcel-specific zoning district for this lot. The safest title/land-investor language is:

“No confirmed municipal zoning found; likely subject to El Paso County development rules, recorded subdivision plat/restrictions, floodplain rules, and utility requirements.”

If it is outside city limits, there may be no traditional city zoning, but construction still needs permits. El Paso County states building permits are required for construction, moving, removal, demolition, and separate electrical/plumbing/mechanical work. (El Paso County)

3. Minimum lot size

The lot is 11,308 sq ft, which is larger than a typical 6,000 sq ft single-family city lot standard shown on older Horizon zoning materials, but that does not automatically mean buildable. Buildability depends on:

• Legal access
• Utility availability
• Septic feasibility or sewer availability
• Floodplain/drainage
• Recorded restrictions
• County/city permit approval

4. RV, camping, storage container, manufactured home

Do not assume these are allowed. For marketing, I would avoid saying “RV allowed,” “camping allowed,” “mobile home allowed,” or “container allowed” unless confirmed.

Likely practical position:

• RV/camping: questionable as a long-term use.
• Storage container: likely needs county/city confirmation and may be restricted.
• Manufactured home: may be possible only if permits, utilities, setbacks, and subdivision restrictions allow it.
• Permanent dwelling: hinges mostly on utilities/access/permitting.

5. Utility availability

Horizon-area utility maps are available through Horizon Communities, including subdivision and water/sewage maps. (Horizon Communities)

Based on the map you attached, the immediate area appears largely undeveloped with paper/platted streets. I would assume no immediate water/sewer at the lot line unless a utility provider confirms otherwise. That is the biggest limiting factor.

6. Growth-planning / investment analysis

This is the strongest part of the parcel. TxDOT identifies Horizon Boulevard / FM 1281 from SH 20 to Ascension Street as a 9.4-mile corridor expected to see increased growth, with multiple developments in planning or construction. (Texas Department of Transportation)

Ascension is also described locally as a north-south route connecting Horizon Boulevard with Montana Avenue. (Horizon Communities)

Investor read:
This is a speculative infill/land-bank parcel. Upside comes from growth along Ascension and Horizon Blvd, but near-term value is limited by lack of utilities, road improvements, and uncertain jurisdiction/use rules.

My recommendation: hold or market it as future-growth Horizon City Estates land near Ascension, but avoid overpromising buildability until you verify utilities and jurisdiction.
