38-Acre Strategic Development Site – Outside 100-Year Floodplain Positioned in the heart of the Moncure-Haywood Economic Development Center, this ~38-acre assemblage (Parcels 5187, 5188, 5192) offers a premier opportunity for a high-impact project. Boasting significant frontage on NC-42 and immediate proximity to the Triangle Innovation Point, the property is uniquely situated to capture the massive industrial and residential growth of the Raleigh-Durham outskirts. Key Investment Highlights: Flood-Free Site: Entirely located outside of the 100-year floodplain, ensuring lower insurance costs, simplified permitting, and maximum buildable area. High-Capacity Power: Located adjacent to the power plant infrastructure, providing a significant advantage for projects with heavy power demands (data centers, manufacturing, or EV-related industry). Strategic Infrastructure: Existing access to gas and water, combined with level topography, makes this a "shovel-ready" candidate for development. Development Potential & Allowed Uses Currently zoned R-5 (Residential), the site is designated within the county’s long-term growth plan as an economic hub. Permitted Uses (Current R-5): Single-family detached dwellings Two-family dwellings (duplexes) Public/Civic uses (Schools, Churches, Community Centers) Agricultural and conservation activities Investment Upside (Rezoning Potential): Given its location near the Cape Fear River and the massive Triangle Innovation Hub, this site is a prime candidate for rezoning to higher-intensity uses. The Plan Moncure framework supports the transition of this corridor into Light Industrial (IL) or Neighborhood Business (NB) to support the 20,000+ jobs projected for the nearby tech and EV manufacturing sector. Why This Version Works: The Floodplain Showcase: I've added a specific header and bullet point for being outside the floodplain. This is a massive selling point for developers because it means no "wasted" land or complex mitigation. Zoning Clarity: By listing both the current "by-right" uses and the rezoning potential, you appeal to both conservative residential developers and high-risk/high-reward industrial investors. Local Context: Mentioning "Plan Moncure" and the "Economic Development Center" shows that the county is already looking for this land to be used for more than just 38 acres of single-family homes.
