Add Parcel ID: 2050000306 to your offer. This is 2 Parcels in 1 sale. FRONTAGE & ACCESS SET THIS PROPERTY APART! With 166 feet of prominent frontage along River Road and three separate access points along Bethel Road, measuring approximately 60 feet, 85 feet, and 652 feet, the possibilities for designing an efficient commercial operation are particularly appealing. Imagine a highly visible storefront or business entrance along River Road, complemented by access from Bethel Road for commercial vehicles, equipment, deliveries, parking, and potential circulation through the property. This configuration offers flexibility for businesses requiring both customer-facing visibility and operational space, subject to applicable approvals. 8.2 ACRES WITH ROOM TO GROW! The front portion is commercially zoned (C-LD), while the rear portion is designated for low-density residential use. Buyers interested in expanding commercial use into the residential portion may explore rezoning through Brunswick County's established application and approval process. Potential concepts include neighborhood retail, professional offices, restaurants, cafés, contractor operations, equipment storage, boutique commercial development, or a combination of commercial and residential uses, subject to zoning and permitting requirements. POSITIONED FOR THE FUTURE! Located along the NC-87/NC-133 and Dosher Cutoff area, this property benefits from proximity to established neighborhoods, expanding residential communities, major employers, and popular coastal destinations. Nearby attractions and employment centers include Duke Energy's Brunswick Nuclear Plant, Military Ocean Terminal Sunny Point, Cape Fear Regional Jetport, Smithville District Park, and the shopping areas surrounding Lowe's and Walmart. Just approximately 10 minutes from Oak Island and minutes from Southport's celebrated waterfront, restaurants, shops, and historic charm, this location offers access to both year-round residents and coastal visitors. ADDITIONAL VALUE & DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL! County water and sewer connections should be available; buyers should confirm capacity, accessibility, and connection requirements with Brunswick County Utilities. A survey and a wetlands study report states that there are no wetlands on the property - information is available in the MLS Documents section. Properties offering this combination of acreage, highway exposure, multiple road access points, and proximity to Southport and Oak Island deserve serious consideration. Bring your vision, explore the possibilities, and position your investment for the future of coastal Brunswick County! Buyers and buyers' agents are responsible for independent due diligence regarding zoning, rezoning potential, permitted uses, access, utilities, surveys, development requirements, and all necessary governmental approvals.
