Eustis, Lake County · Central Florida

Single corner lot seeks
long-term relationship.

I’ve spent years on this beautiful corner in Eustis, watching thousands of cars drive by every day — and every one of them just keeps going. I’m low-maintenance, highly visible, and very commitment-oriented. Fifteen years? A triple-net lease? Be still my heart. I’d make a wonderful partner for the right business — a coffee company, a smoothie brand… maybe you. So call me. I’ll be right here.

Now, the substance

But enough flirting. Let’s talk about why this corner means business.

This is a high-visibility corner at the gateway intersection of County Road 44 and County Road 44A in Eustis, Florida — a commuter route carrying thousands of vehicles per day past a parcel large enough to accommodate a modern drive-thru with generous stacking, landscaping, and easy ingress and egress. The site suits coffee, beverage, breakfast, smoothie, bakery, dessert, or quick-service concepts, and the owner is open to a ground lease, a build-to-suit arrangement, or a long-term NNN lease structured to the tenant’s specifications and built by their preferred developer. For an expanding brand looking to plant a location in one of Central Florida’s fastest-growing corridors, this is a rare chance to secure a prime corner before someone else does.

Flexible on structure — and on who builds it

  • Ground lease — lease the dirt; you (or your preferred developer) build to your exact prototype.
  • Build-to-suit — the building delivered to your specification, by your approved builder if required.
  • Long-term NNN — the 15–20 year commitment we’re genuinely looking for.

The owner is the landowner — not a first-time developer asking you to take a risk. Bring the partners you already trust; we’ll deliver the corner.
