BAY MINETTE, AL - This 0.74-acre corner parcel of commercial development land fronts 4-lane Hwy 287/Rabun Road & Ransom Stewart Ln, with approximately 345 feet of paved frontage. Positioned at the heart of one of Baldwin County's most active growth corridors, the site is surrounded by large-scale industrial, residential, and hospitality projects — a standout opportunity for developers seeking smart site selection in South Alabama. The numbers tell the story. Rabun Rd/Hwy 287 carries 10,637 AADT, up 6.8% in a single year, while nearby I-65 moves 21,595 vehicles daily, up 3.4%. The interstate sits just 2 miles away, ensuring convenient access for logistics, employees, and customers alike. Water and natural gas are available through North Baldwin Utilities, and a $5 million grant was recently awarded to upgrade Hwy 287 infrastructure near the Novelis plant. Looking ahead, the approved Baldwin Beach Express II — a 25-mile divided highway that will connect I-65 at Bay Minette to I-10 and the Gulf Coast — sits roughly 4 miles from the site, with a planned interchange at the neighboring Novelis facility. Momentum here is already visible on the ground. The brand-new Oak View RV Park — 116 full-hookup sites built to serve traveling visitors and professionals working the region's industrial expansion — sits directly between this property and the $4.1 billion Novelis aluminum facility roughly a half-mile away, placing the site squarely along the path of daily traffic between the two. Add in the property's two greatest advantages — an unzoned corner location with no zoning ordinances, offering unmatched flexibility for commercial, residential, or mixed-use development, and dual Opportunity Zone and SBA HUBZone designations that bring potential tax incentives and federal contracting advantages — and you have a rare parcel built to reduce costs and maximize ROI from day one.
