IA Manatee 301 presents an opportunity to acquire 39.2± acres of commercially entitled land positioned at the southwest corner of Buckeye Road and U.S. 301 in Parrish, one of northern Manatee County's most active residential growth corridors. The property is zoned PD-MU (Ordinance 19-07), permitting up to 150,000 square feet of commercial development and supporting a range of neighborhood-serving uses, including large-format retail, restaurant, service, and commercial outparcel concepts.
The site benefits from frontage and planned access along both U.S. 301 and Buckeye Road, placing future development within a rapidly expanding trade area influenced by major residential communities such as Prosperity Lakes, Firethorn, North River Ranch, Bella Lago, and Del Webb Explore. Approximately 35,940 planned residential lots and units are identified within the Buckeye Road and U.S. 301 trade area, creating a substantial long-term customer base for retail and service-oriented commercial uses.
Infrastructure improvements continue to strengthen the area's accessibility and growth outlook. Existing utility infrastructure, including nearby water and sewer service, supports future development planning, while roadway improvements along Buckeye Road and ongoing transportation investments throughout the corridor are expected to enhance regional connectivity. Additional demand generators include the expanding North River Ranch area, healthcare investment from HCA Florida, and the future State College of Florida Parrish campus.
Conceptual planning contemplates a large-format commercial development with associated parking, stormwater facilities, and outparcel opportunities, subject to governmental approvals and permitting. The property's scale, commercial entitlement, and location within a high-growth corridor position it as a significant development opportunity for investors, developers, and commercial users seeking exposure to one of Manatee County's expanding population centers.
