Premier Development Opportunity in Jacksonville’s Fastest-Growing Corridor

Secure a high-visibility, 0.88-acre corner development site strategically located in the heart of Jacksonville’s Westside growth engine. This prime parcel is positioned at the intersection of Chaffee Road and Old Gainesville Road, serving as a critical gateway for thousands of daily commuters and local residents.

The property benefits from exceptional regional connectivity, situated just 1 minute from the newly developed Plaza at Normandy (anchored by a prototype Publix with a drive-thru pharmacy), 2 minutes from the First Coast Expressway (SR-23), and 5 minutes from I-10. The surrounding area is undergoing a massive transformation with thousands of new residential rooftops under construction and the expansion of the Cecil Commerce Center, one of the region's largest employment hubs. This is a rare "plug-and-play" opportunity for a developer to capture market share in a submarket where demand for retail services and QSR options far outweighs current supply.

The subject property consists of a flat, buildable corner lot with approximately 220 feet of direct frontage on Chaffee Road. The site features dual access points (ingress/egress) on a high-traffic thoroughfare boasting over 17,000+ AADT. Its corner positioning ensures maximum visibility for directional signage and brand exposure.

The lot is predominantly cleared and level. While the property currently houses a 1,064 SF mobile home, it carries no contributory value and has been digitally removed in conceptual renderings to showcase the site’s true development potential. Situated within the Jacksonville Urban Service Area, the site is positioned for connection to municipal infrastructure, supporting high-intensity uses such as car washes or restaurants. Significant upside exists for a developer to assemble a larger commercial footprint by combining this site with the adjoining parcel, allowing for a more substantial retail center or a multi-tenant development.
