About this home
Prime Opportunity Zone Assemblage – Signalized Corner on U.S. Route 74, Gastonia, NC. Positioned in the heart of Gastonia within a designated Gaston County Opportunity Zone, this rare redevelopment assemblage presents a compelling investment and development opportunity along one of the region’s most heavily traveled corridors. The property is prominently located at a signalized corner with direct frontage on U.S. Route 74 (West Franklin Boulevard), a major east–west thoroughfare connecting Gastonia to Charlotte and the greater Charlotte metropolitan area. The assemblage consists of four contiguous parcels totaling approximately 2.37 acres, offering scale, visibility, and flexibility that are increasingly difficult to find in established urban corridors. The parcels include 226 Linwood Road, 1335 W. Franklin Boulevard, 1337 W. Franklin Boulevard, and 1330 W. 2nd Avenue, Gastonia, NC 28052, allowing for a cohesive redevelopment footprint suitable for a wide range of commercial or mixed-use concepts. Route 74 carries substantial daily traffic counts and serves as a primary commuter and retail corridor, providing exceptional exposure and access. The signalized intersection enhances ingress and egress, while the corner location maximizes visibility from multiple directions—an ideal configuration for retail, QSR, medical office, service-oriented uses, or mixed-use development, subject to zoning and municipal approvals. Situated minutes from downtown Gastonia, the site benefits from proximity to residential neighborhoods, employment centers, and regional amenities, as well as convenient access to I-85 and Charlotte Douglas International Airport. Gastonia continues to experience steady growth driven by population expansion, infrastructure investment, and increasing interest from both local and regional developers seeking value opportunities outside the Charlotte urban core. As an Opportunity Zone, this property offers potential tax advantages for qualified investors, enhancing long-term returns while encouraging capital investment in a high-visibility, growth-oriented location. With strong fundamentals, strategic frontage, and assemblage scale, this site represents a prime redevelopment opportunity in one of Gaston County’s most active commercial corridors. This is a rare chance to secure a well-located, signalized-corner assemblage with redevelopment potential in a market poised for continued growth and transformation.
