**Prime Commercial Development Opportunity in Downtown Columbus – Exceptional Value with Outstanding Potential!** Commercial land with this combination of location, infrastructure, visibility, and value is becoming increasingly difficult to find. Schedule your private tour today and come walk the property to fully appreciate the possibilities.
Positioned in one of Western North Carolina’s fastest-growing corridors, this commercial land opportunity offers outstanding visibility, a strong traffic count, and incredible value at **nearly half of the current tax value**. With city water and sewer available (per seller/utility provider—buyer to verify), this property is well-positioned for a wide variety of commercial or mixed-use development opportunities.
Whether you’re an investor, developer, business owner, or visionary entrepreneur, this property offers the flexibility to bring your next project to life. Potential uses may include self-storage, office or professional space, retail, mixed-use development, recreational facilities, medical or wellness services, affordable or senior housing (subject to approvals), or other commercial ventures. Buyers are encouraged to verify all intended uses through their due diligence.
One of the property’s standout features is the large, gently rolling to flatter upper section, providing additional usable acreage with excellent development potential. Preliminary discussions indicate access from the main roadway to the upper portion may be more feasible than many buyers expect, creating opportunities to maximize the site’s layout and functionality.
Conveniently located near AdventHealth Polk (formerly St. Luke’s Hospital), downtown Columbus, and Interstate 26, the property offers easy access to Asheville, Hendersonville, Spartanburg, Greenville, and Charlotte. Its central location places it within an area experiencing continued residential and commercial growth, making it an attractive long-term investment.
Additional features include a creek along the rear of the property, multiple usable building areas, and flexibility for a variety of site designs. Buyers should explore available grants, economic development incentives, financing options, or other programs that may support their proposed project.
The seller may consider subdividing the right portion of the property (when facing from the roadway). Additional MLS listings are available for related purchase opportunities.
