Description

PRIME HIGH VISIBILITY 30 AC. COMMERCIAL SITE! Prime 30+/- acre development site with approximately 1,500+/- feet of frontage on State Road 80, located at the signalized intersection of SR 80 and Helms Extension Road in LaBelle, Florida. This highly visible site lies along the community’s primary four-lane commercial corridor and is situated just feet from Walmart, Tractor Supply, and O’Reilly Auto Parts, with planned development for the new LaBelle High School, a car dealership, car wash, hotel, and fast-food restaurant nearby. LaBelle serves as a key crossroads community, positioned at the intersection of SR 80 and SR 29, providing direct access across Southwest Florida. The location offers convenient connectivity to both the east and west coasts of Florida, with Miami approximately 2½ hours away and Orlando approximately 3 hours away, making it an attractive hub for commuters, logistics, and regional commerce. Once a rural market, LaBelle has evolved into a fast-growing bedroom community for Fort Myers, Naples, and Cape Coral. Growth is further supported by site work underway for the new LaBelle High School on Helms Extension Road, driving increased traffic, infrastructure expansion, and surrounding development. The property is currently zoned Agricultural and benefits from an agricultural exemption, keeping holding costs exceptionally low until development. Rezoning for commercial use through Hendry County is anticipated to be straightforward, offering an excellent land-banking or phased development opportunity. The land consists of semi-improved pasture and includes a wood-frame stilt caretaker’s residence. Utilities are currently in place to Walmart, with planned extensions to the Lee/Hendry County line, supporting future commercial development. With its signalized intersection, extensive frontage, proximity to national retailers, low carrying costs, expanding utilities, and strategic regional access, this property represents a rare opportunity to acquire a premier commercial development site in one of Southwest Florida’s emerging growth corridors.
