Fully Entitled - Save Significant Time and Development Costs
Unlike raw land that can require 18–24 months of engineering, permitting, and entitlement work, this property is fully entitled
with infrastructure improvements already completed. A buyer can bypass the lengthy approval process and move directly
toward construction. For most commercial sites, the entitlement process can involve extensive civil engineering, site planning,
stormwater design, utility coordination, and municipal approvals-often costing hundreds of thousands of dollars and years of
planning before a project can even break ground. With these steps already completed, this site provides a major competitive
advantage by allowing a developer or owner-user to accelerate the construction timeline, reduce upfront risk, and significantly
lower predevelopment costs. Purchasing a shovel-ready site like this can compress the development schedule by u
The Hampstead and Pender County market is currently running approximately 2% vacancy factor for both office and retail space. This is an opportunity to build disparate products which address three segments of the market. The buildings are part of a mini-business park which will include an emergency veterinarian, an owner-occupied retail flooring business and the Integrity Business Park (noted on attached survey as AR2) behind the site. The stormwater permit is in hand and will flow to a single pond on the Integrity site.
Location Description:
Our offering is located on the Northwest side of Highway 17 between Porters Neck and Hampstead. The immediate area has several developments in process which will add residential and commercial offerings to the market. The NC Department of Transportation cites a traffic count of 44,000 vehicles per day along this stretch of Highway 17. This number, which is the most recent available, dates to 2022. The nearest median break parallels Whitebridge Road and will allow a direct left to turn into the project for traffic heading North on Highway 17.
Site Description:
The total site is 2.68 acres with approximately 270 feet of frontage along Highway 17. The site is at or above grade with Highway 17 and has no wetlands per report. Pender County administers Planning/Zoning for this site, in addition to providing water and sewer service. This tract has excellent soils, and any dirt import required during construction will be minimal. Visibility for both North and Southbound traffic is excellent for this project. Additionally, the two parcels which front Highway 17 will each have a curb cut on Highway 17, although a cross-access easement will be in place. Please review the included survey as the GIS records may differ due to a recombination.
