3- ADVANTAGES OF THE LOCATION: 

  • LOCATION: A perfect location with 135 acres right by I-40 exit 373 makes for easy access.

  • TRAFFIC: I-40 interchange with NC-24 has a large traffic flow. See AADT figures

  • HOTEL: A new hotel with 90 rooms is shortly starting construction by Exit 373 

  • WATERFRONT: Cleared golf course land with beautiful lake front, ideal for commercial & residential development.

  • ZONING: No zoning; all official bodies have indicated their full approval for the proposed uses.

  • UPGRADE: NC 24 upgrade to four lanes is due completion by 2013.

  • WATER: The municipal water pipes run alongside the property. There is also a spring flowing 24/7 at 6,000 gallons a day. When pumped it produces over 100,000 gallons  per day of clean drinking water. 

  • SEWER: The town of Magnolia has a recently upgraded sewage plant that can handle 260,000 gals./day. Present use is 80,000 gals./day. The pipes will run beside the property to Exit 373 by next year.
