About this home

**Prime 2.17-Acre Commercial Development Opportunity in Surf City** Position your next commercial project in the heart of one of the fastest-growing coastal communities in southeastern North Carolina. Located at 13741 NC Highway 50 in Surf City, in front of Heritage Square retail center, this approximately 2.17-acre commercial site offers exceptional flexibility, convenient access, and close proximity to both established businesses and residential communities. Already annexed into the Town of Surf City and zoned C-3, the property accommodates a broad range of potential commercial uses, including retail, professional and medical office, service businesses, light industrial uses, and **hotel development**, subject to applicable Town approvals and development standards. The versatile zoning creates an opportunity for investors, developers, and owner-users seeking a site with multiple potential development paths. The property is strategically positioned behind Low Tide Steakhouse and directly in front of Bishop Creek Apartments, placing it near both commercial activity and an established residential population. Access is provided by a 25-foot access and utility easement through the existing parking lot and along the left side of the multi-tenant commercial building fronting Highway 50. See accompanying photographs and maps for the easement location. The surrounding Mainland Surf City commercial corridor includes major retailers, restaurants, breweries, grocery stores, and everyday services. Walmart, Publix, Food Lion, Salty Turtle Beer Company, GoGas, and numerous other businesses are all nearby, while the island and Surf City's beaches are only minutes away. There is currently no sewer allocation assigned to the property. Any approved site plan requiring municipal sewer would be placed on the Town of Surf City's sewer allocation waitlist. Septic may provide an alternative development path, subject to suitability, permitting, and applicable Town and County requirements. See communication with Surf City Utility Director uploaded under documents.
