Build a prominent destination in the accelerating Staunton market, as the adjacent lots are being developed into Brandsgate, a cohesive mixed-use project. Located off Jefferson Highway (US Route 250) near the LifeCore mixed-use commercial and residential project, this 1.6-acre site is zoned for general business, and the seller has suggested a 5,000-square-foot gas station/convenience store, but there is an array of alternative development opportunities. The site will have a right-in, right-out entrance directly on US Route 250, and the intersection is slated to get a stoplight. This will be the first new convenience store on the four-lane highway between Exit 222 and Lifecore Drive, which leads to Augusta Health, one of the market’s largest medical centers and employers. Brandsgate is poised to become a high-profile destination as the land nears completion for sales and leasing in Summer 2026. This 1.6-acre lot will be directly in the middle of Brandsgate, centered around a strip mall, a bank branch, a restaurant pad, and more than 180 new multifamily homes. The incoming establishments will perfectly complement this site and further invigorate the ascendant growth corridor. Situated five minutes from the interchange of Interstates 64 and 81, this site is empowered by access from two of Virginia’s most important commuter and commercial transport arteries. Highlighting the area’s rising demand, the 300-acre Staunton Crossing industrial park is being developed only 2 miles away. There are three brand-new Wawas in Staunton, Fishersville, and Waynesboro, and Buc-ee's recently opened its first Virginia location about 20 minutes up Interstate 81. This demand is also reflected in real estate trends as the Staunton retail market’s vacancy rate is near an all-time low at 3.67% as of May 2026.
