Description

This generous 11.62-acre land parcel at the northwest corner of Winter Lake Road (SR-540) and Thornhill Road offers a commanding development platform for investors seeking a prominent presence within Winter Haven, FL. The tract delivers a clean slate with clear boundaries and immediate access to major thoroughfares, including close proximity to the Polk Parkway, which is currently undergoing expansion. The property is also adjacent to a RaceTrac, further supporting its visibility and commercial positioning. The prominent 715 ± FT frontage along State Road 540 possesses physical and logistical attributes highly favorable for future commercial land-use amendments or a comprehensive mixed-use commercial rezoning, subject to municipal approvals.

Current traffic volume along State Road 540 is approximately 35,000 vehicles per day, reflecting a strong historical baseline that is projected to expand dramatically with the Central Polk Parkway expansion. The tolled S.R. 570B interchange is currently under construction and targeting a 2027 opening. Dedicated utilities and site improvements allow for more efficient entitlement and construction timelines, positioning this property for residential, retail, or mixed-use development concepts that demand visibility and connectivity in an evolving market. Completed as-built surveys for the adjacent RaceTrac site (covering Potable Water, Fire Lines, Stormwater, and Sanitary Sewer) between late 2024 and mid-2025 are available, so a future developer can anticipate an expedited utility entitlement/tie-in timeline due to this proximal infrastructure.
