This 185.8-acre heavy industrial site in DeFuniak Springs offers the rare combination of rail frontage, three-phase power, and natural gas infrastructure in a single contiguous parcel. The property features approximately 3,300 feet of frontage on the Florida Gulf & Atlantic Railroad main line running from Pensacola to Jacksonville, with private spur potential subject to railroad approval. Three-phase FPL power is active on site with additional infrastructure along the northern boundary, while a four-inch city gas main sits just west of the property line. Municipal water and sewer service are available, supplemented by six on-site wells including four former industrial production wells. The site benefits from direct highway access via a dedicated turn lane off US Highway 90, two miles from I-10 Exit 85 and half a mile from US 331. Heavy Industrial zoning permits a broad range of uses including industrial operations, renewable energy development, and telecommunications infrastructure. The property sits at approximately 246 feet elevation on flat, well-drained sandy soils, predominantly within FEMA Flood Zone X, with groundwater roughly 30 feet below grade. A 2020 Phase I Environmental Site Assessment found no Recognized Environmental Conditions. Existing improvements include approximately 15,000 square feet of usable structures: an 8,800-square-foot red-iron diesel and mechanic shop, a 1,400-square-foot metal fabrication shop, a 700-square-foot office building, two residential structures, and supporting utility buildings. The property is offered at $6,899,999, with owner financing considered for qualified buyers.
