Faris Lee Investments is pleased to present an exceptional opportunity to acquire a newly constructed, single-tenant retail property fully leased to Murphy USA in the growing trade area of Fayetteville, NC. This property features a corporate-executed, long-term 20-year absolute triple-net (NNN) ground lease with Murphy USA, Inc. (NYSE: MUSA), a publicly traded, Fortune 500 company with a strong S&P credit rating of BB+. Murphy USA built and paid for the construction of the building and improvements, and is directly responsible for all repairs and maintenance, including the building, fueling pumps, canopy, parking lot, and landscaping. Additionally, Murphy USA directly pays the property taxes, utilities, and insurance. The 20-year ground lease includes four (4), five (5) year renewal options, providing a potential total lease term of forty (40) years. Furthermore, the ground lease features scheduled rental increases of 8% every five years, ensuring a growing income stream and a hedge against inflation for the investor.
Murphy USA is a leading operator of retail gas stations and convenience stores, boasting over 1,750 locations across 27 states under the recognized brands Murphy USA, Murphy Express, and QuikChek. Ranked 231 on the Fortune 500 list, the company generated over $19.38 billion in revenue in 2025, demonstrating significant financial strength and market presence since its founding in 1996. This property represents brand new, prototypical construction, eliminating concerns of deferred maintenance and featuring the latest store layout designed to maximize sales volume. The new building, fuel stations, parking lot, and improvements contribute significant intrinsic real estate value.
The property is strategically located in Fayetteville, a thriving North Carolina city anchored by Fort Liberty (formerly Fort Bragg), the world’s largest military installation by population, with over 50,000 active-duty personnel. Situated along the Highway 87 corridor (± 28,900 VPD), the asset occupies a high-profile, free-standing hard corner at the signalized intersection of Bragg Blvd and Santa Fe Drive. This location benefits from its immediate proximity to the All-American Freeway (±55,400 VPD) and Interstate 295 (±57,400 VPD), the region’s primary commuter and logistical arteries. The site is supported by a dense immediate trade area, with a population of over 140,000 people and more than 55,000 households within a 5-mile radius. Surrounded by a mix of established residential neighborhoods and major employment drivers, including the nearby Goodyear Tire plant and various industrial hubs, the property is perfectly positioned to capture consistent customer traffic from Fayetteville’s robust, military-driven consumer base.
