Description

Lot 3 consists of approximately 28 acres strategically located near Interstate 75 Exit 49 in Athens, with convenient access from Milton Road/County Road 126 and positioned roughly 1,250 feet west of the interstate. This highly visible development site has already undergone approximately $1 million in dirt work, site preparation, and engineering in anticipation of a large storage facility project, creating substantial value and reducing future development timelines. Existing storage facility plans can be conveyed with the property, and detailed plans are available to qualified buyers upon execution of a non-disclosure agreement. The property is ideally situated adjacent to Dynasty Spas on the south side and near Comfort Inn, Weigel’s, and Speedway Gas Station, benefiting from strong commercial activity and interstate traffic exposure. Currently zoned Agricultural within the Greenbelt program, the site offers significant development flexibility, with potential annexation into the City of Athens and the possibility of combining with adjacent parcels including Lot 1 and Lot 2 for dual access from both Highway 30/Decatur Pike and Milton Road/County Road 126. Lot 3 is part of a larger 52.86-acre assemblage consisting of five adjoining parcels with cooperative ownership, creating additional opportunities for large-scale commercial or mixed-use development. Offered at $840,000, or approximately $30,000 per acre, the property is well suited for storage, industrial, retail, service, mixed-use, or highway-oriented commercial development and is strategically positioned approximately halfway between Knoxville and Chattanooga.
