458 Whitfield St, Fayetteville, NC 28306 For Lease

A rare ±183,000 SF heavy industrial facility on ±18 acres in Cumberland County, North Carolina. Originally built in 1977 and renovated in 1999, this former press and manufacturing plant delivers institutional-grade infrastructure that is exceptionally difficult to find in today’s Southeast market: 52 FT clear heights in the production hall, 7–9 MW of expandable power capacity, 14 dock-high doors, 9 grade-level doors, and a dedicated CSX rail spur with two rail docks. Zoned HI (Heavy Industrial), the facility supports a wide range of uses including large-scale manufacturing, logistics and warehousing, heavy processing, data center conversion, cold storage, and defense contracting.

The site’s strategic value extends well beyond its four walls. Located adjacent to Interstate 95 — the East Coast’s primary north-south freight corridor — and minutes from Fort Bragg, the largest U.S. Army installation by population, this property sits at the intersection of commercial logistics demand and defense-sector opportunity. Cumberland County offers a competitive cost structure, a right-to-work labor environment, and a steady pipeline of skilled talent from the military community. For international manufacturers and industrial operators seeking a scalable, rail-served, heavy-power facility in the Southeastern U.S., this is a turnkey solution in a market where supply is shrinking and demand is accelerating.
