Martin Trаct іs а 30 аcre, genеrаlly level site in a rapіdlу expanding market within the Highway 17/315 corridor of lower Jasper County in the hamlet of Levy, SC. Conveniently located only 6 miles from the Georgia Ports Authority and within the broader trade and labor growth radiating from Savannah, the property captures demand driven by increased warehouse, industrial, and residential investment across the region - it is central to Savannah in just 15 minutes, Bluffton in 15 minutes and Hardeeville exit 5 just 5 minutes, yet it's a rare area that remains rural. The Region's growth is due to the major warehouse and light-industrial expansion, regional population and employment gains which are projected to accelerate. The topography of the site is predominantly level terrain with minimal wetlands, simplifying site planning and construction and an 8" public water main runs the length of Roper Road. Currently zoned as Rural Preservation in the county, residential/acreage but uniquely eligible for Planned Development District (PDD) under Jasper County code, enabling customized land-use standards beyond typical rural preservation rules. Parcel size supports a self-contained master plan - internal roads, green space, centralized utilities - suitable for small housing developments, institutional uses for example academic or civic, RV Park, student housing, or a private compound. A tract of this size reduces exposure to incompatible neighboring uses while capturing long-term asset appreciation from regional momentum. Because the site exceeds the 25-acre PDD threshold, developers can pursue tailored standards, streamlined approvals, and a predictable pathway to convert the land into a high-value, institutional or mixed-use project. Nearby boat ramps provide access to the New and Wright Rivers for boating, fishing or Kayaking. Also within minutes are convenience stores and restaurants.
