Uplift Development Group has opened Uplift Self Storage – Goodnight Ranch, a 102,000-square-foot storage facility in Austin, Texas, at 6726 Stockman Drive. The developer also oversees day-to-day operations at the facility.
The three-story self-storage property comprises climate-controlled units ranging from 25 to 300 square feet. Amenities at the gated facility include drive-up access, security cameras and on-site staff.
Uplift Self Storage is part of the 700-acre Goodnight Ranch, a mixed-use master-planned community. The megadevelopment features single-family homes, senior housing and rental units, as well as retail and office space and a healthcare clinic.
The storage facility is close to several major thoroughfares, namely Interstate 35, U.S. Route 183 and highways 71, 45 and 130. The Austin-Bergstrom International Airport is within 10 miles northeast. Downtown Austin is 11 miles north. The property is one of four available within a 3-mile radius, offering residents some 5 net rentable square feet per capita.
