1735 Coven Abbett Highway - 5,000 SF Building & 8 Acres

Alexander City is a strategically positioned Central Alabama market offering a compelling blend of small-market accessibility, regional connectivity, and long-term growth potential. Located along U.S. Highway 280, the city provides a direct corridor between Birmingham, Wetumpka, and Auburn/Opelika, with convenient access to Montgomery, the state capital. This connectivity allows businesses to benefit from regional traffic flow, workforce access, and proximity to multiple economic centers while maintaining lower occupancy and operating costs. The property is well-positioned within a broader trade area that includes Wetumpka and Montgomery, both of which continue to experience steady residential and commercial growth. Wetumpka has seen increased attention as a revitalizing small city with strong tourism appeal, while Montgomery serves as a major employment hub for government, healthcare, the military (Maxwell Air Force Base), and corporate services. Together, these markets help drive consistent demand for office, retail, dining, and service-based businesses throughout the region. Alexander City itself is supported by a stable economic base including healthcare, manufacturing, education, and tourism, with additional demand generated by nearby Lake Martin, one of Alabama’s premier recreational destinations. The lake attracts significant seasonal and weekend traffic, creating strong opportunities for hospitality, retail, and event-driven concepts.Positioned along Coven Abbett Highway in Alexander City, this 5,000 +/- SF freestanding metal building on 8 +/- acres presents a highly versatile opportunity for owner-users, investors, or redevelopment.

Located just minutes from Lake Martin and Wind Creek State Park, the property benefits from proximity to one of Central Alabama’s most active recreational corridors, supporting a wide range of commercial or special-use applications. Ideal uses include service-based businesses, light industrial, event or entertainment venues, recreational concepts, church or assembly use, or adaptive retail.
