The County has not assigned an address to the parcel, but it is located next to 1606 US Hwy 27 near Raymond Dr. The property is perfect for a contractor, landscaper, equipment company, auto repair, utility or other business. The tract will benefit from a road widening project on US Hwy 27 that is currently under construction and scheduled to be completed in spring of 2025. The site is convenient to Columbus, Harris County, Phenix City, Ft. Moore, Lagrange and all of the Chattahoochee Valley.
The owner recently facilitated some drainage and fencing improvements along US Hwy 27 and along the back side of the tract. Other than these dollars, the property has been virtually maintenance free for many years.
