Description

This highly visible site offers excellent access and frontage within one of the area's most active retail corridors, enhancing its positioning as a premier development opportunity, with General Business (GB) zoning that provides exceptional flexibility for a wide array of commercial uses, including gas station, convenience store, car wash, self-storage, automotive services, hospitality, restaurant, and medical office.

The property is ideally suited for retail development, single-tenant net lease to national operators (e.g., convenience, restaurant, or service users), or a joint venture with a developer for a small shopping center or mixed-use concept that could leverage car wash synergy.

Strategically positioned between dominant retail centers and surrounded by established and expanding residential communities, the site benefits from strong built-in consumer demand. The property is located just 2.5 miles from Elon University and features direct access to University Drive, a key connector between Interstate access points and the university, further supporting consistent traffic flow and visibility.
