SUNNYVALE — Hundreds of homes could replace a long-shuttered Orchard Supply Hardware store in Sunnyvale now that an East Coast real estate firm has bought the development site.
Purchased for about $44.3 million, Sunnyvale officials have already approved plans for 242 housing units at 777 Sunnyvale-Saratoga Rd., according to documents filed on Oct. 14 with the Santa Clara County Recorder’s Office.
At the corner of Sunnyvale-Saratoga Road and South Mathilda Avenue, the development would consist of 162 apartments and 80 townhomes, documents show. Valley Oak Partners filed the development application and steered the proposal through the city review process.
