Prime Highway Exposure | Rare 6.87-Acre Site 22 US Highway 130 26 855 pi² Industriel Immeuble Trenton, NJ 08620 8 075 949 $ CAD (300,72 $ CAD/pi²)

For Lease or Sale – 18–22 US Highway Route 130, Bordentown, NJ
Positioned along one of Central New Jersey’s most heavily trafficked commercial corridors, this 6.87-acre industrial and retail property presents a rare opportunity for both tenants and investors to secure a highly functional, flexible, and strategically located asset. With over 42,000 square feet of existing improvements across four buildings, the property is ideally suited for a wide range of users seeking visibility, accessibility, and operational efficiency. Tenants will benefit from immediate highway exposure along Route 130, strong daily traffic counts exceeding 30,000 vehicles, multiple access points for seamless ingress and egress, and a layout that supports a variety of uses including contractor operations, distribution, light manufacturing, retail showroom, or outdoor storage. The combination of clear-span industrial space, drive-in loading, ample parking, and outdoor yard area creates an ideal environment for businesses that require both functionality and visibility in a growing and accessible market.
From an ownership perspective, the property offers compelling value as both an investment and an owner-user acquisition. The flexible CC (Community Commercial) and HC (Highway Commercial) zoning allows for a broad range of permitted uses including retail, restaurants, offices, service businesses, and highway-oriented commercial operations, with additional upside through conditional uses such as car washes, self-storage, vehicle sales, and garden or building supply operations. This zoning framework supports long-term adaptability and repositioning potential, while the site’s size and layout allow for multiple income streams or phased redevelopment. With up to 75% impervious coverage permitted and multiple structures allowed on-site, an investor can maximize usability while maintaining flexibility for future expansion or reconfiguration. The existing improvements provide immediate cash flow potential, while the location and zoning create a clear path for value-add strategies, redevelopment, or long-term hold.
Surrounded by a dense and growing population base, strong household incomes, and proximity to major transportation infrastructure including the New Jersey Turnpike, I-195, Route 206, and Route 1, the property is ideally positioned to serve both local and regional demand. Its proximity to rail, ports, and airports further enhances its appeal for logistics, service, and trade-based businesses. Whether leased to a single user, divided among multiple tenants, or repositioned as a modern commercial hub, 18–22 Route 130 represents a rare opportunity to acquire or occupy a highly visible, adaptable asset in a supply-constrained corridor with strong long-term fundamentals.
