736 S HWY 17, SAN MATEO, FL 32187

Positioned at the signalized intersection of US Highway 17 and Horse Landing Road, this 1.5 -acre C-2 zoned commercial property offers exceptional visibility, accessibility, and long-term development potential in the heart of San Mateo.

Located directly across from Circle K and Dollar General, the site benefits from consistent exposure to local residents, commuters, tourists, boaters, and anglers traveling between Palatka, Welaka, and the St. Johns River.

The property is currently operating as a U-Haul drop-off location and flea market with 34+ vendor booths and structures, along with existing power and water. While the current improvements provide immediate functionality and potential income, the true value lies in the property's prime location, flexible C-2 zoning, and redevelopment potential.

Whether you're an investor seeking an income-producing asset, a developer planning a new commercial project, or an owner-user searching for a highly visible location, this property offers exceptional flexibility for a wide range of commercial uses.

Adding to its long-term investment appeal, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has plans to widen this section of US Highway 17 from two lanes to four lanes, improving traffic flow, infrastructure, and supporting continued commercial growth throughout the corridor.

C-2 zoning permits numerous commercial uses, including retail centers, restaurants, convenience stores, professional and medical offices, automotive services, lodging, self-storage, service businesses, and multi-tenant commercial developments.

Putnam County continues to experience significant economic investment, highlighted by major industrial expansions, new residential development, business-friendly policies, Opportunity Zones, and continued infrastructure improvements. As the area's population and employment base continue to grow, demand for retail, dining, healthcare, and commercial services is expected to increase, creating a strong foundation for future development.

The surrounding corridor also benefits from year-round tourism and recreational traffic to the St. Johns River, along with annual regional events that bring thousands of additional visitors to the area.

Commercial opportunities offering this combination of signalized highway frontage, established neighboring national retailers, existing utilities, flexible zoning, and future infrastructure improvements are becoming increasingly difficult to find.

This offering includes both 736 & 738 S Highway 17, totaling approximately 1.5 acres of contiguous C-2 zoned commercial land. The property is being sold as-is. Value is primarily in the location, zoning, visibility, and future development potential. Bring your vision and capitalize on one of Putnam County's most promising commercial corridors.
