Property Description

Rarely does a commercial opportunity of this scale come available in Western North Carolina. Positioned at one of Franklin's highest-traffic intersections along US-23, this 13.66 acre commercially zoned property delivers exceptional highway visibility, strong traffic counts, and virtually unlimited development potential — all set against the backdrop of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The real story is the land. Over 13 acres of commercially zoned ground situated directly alongside Walmart, Chick-fil-A, ALDI, Starbucks, Verizon, Jersey Mike's, Exxon, and more — placing this site squarely at the center of Macon County's strongest and fastest-growing retail corridor. Infrastructure is already working in your favor: natural gas and additional utilities are on site, with public water and sewer nearby pending town approval — a critical advantage for any ground-up development scenario. The property currently includes 68 storage units and a 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom apartment. Whether your vision is retail, hospitality, or a build-to-suit project, the fundamentals are here. Prime location, and utility access in one of WNC's most active growth markets
