About this home

Exciting Opportunity in Downtown Columbus – Prime Commercial Acreage at an Incredible Value a fraction of tax value - +/-4 Acres! Property is being offered as approximately +/-4 acres; the buyer may have the opportunity to purchase additional acreage, less acreage, or the entire parcel!(See other MLS #s) If you’ve been waiting for the right investment opportunity in one of Western North Carolina’s growing corridors, this is one you truly need to walk/run/jog/roll however you need to and see this one to appreciate. LOL With a high traffic count, water/sewer availability per city/seller, and a price point difficult and unheard of to find for commercial acreage in this location, this property offers exceptional upside for investors, developers, business owners, or locals looking to secure land before continued growth pushes values even higher! The possibilities here are truly endless. Whether you envision storage buildings, mixed-use development, affordable or senior housing, office space, a hardware store, recreational facilities, a youth sports complex, skating rink, or something entirely unique, the versatility and location make this tract stand out from the rest. One of the hidden gems of the property is the beautiful flatter area “up top,” offering incredible potential for additional development and usability. Per local grading discussions, access from the main road to the upper section may be more feasible and affordable than many buyers would expect, creating even more opportunity to maximize the site and future layout possibilities. Conveniently positioned near Advent Health / formerly St. Luke’s Hospital with easy access to I-26 and Highway 74, this location places you right in the middle of the Charlotte, Asheville, and Greenville/Spartanburg growth corridor while still capturing strong local traffic from Columbus, Tryon, Saluda, Landrum, Hendersonville, Forest City, Brevard, and surrounding areas. Future area improvements, including the Rails to Trails expansion and continued YMCA growth nearby, only add to the long-term appeal and traffic exposure. The property also features a creek along the backside, multiple usable areas, and flexibility for a variety of potential layouts and uses. Buyers are encouraged to explore possible grants, development incentives, lending programs, or investment structures that may be available for their intended project. Cash buyers, investors, and financed opportunities are all welcome. This is the kind of property people look back on and wish they had secured earlier. Call today to schedule your private showing and come walk the land for yourself!
