Love Springs
I-85 Corridor Development Potential Between Gaffney and Spartanburg South Carolina
One-Hundred acres of development potential in the desirable community of Love Springs which sits within commutable distances of Spartanburg and Gaffney.
This premium site is made up of gentle topography across broad uplands. A perennial stream flows southward through the tract. The land has excellent access, with more than 2,600 feet of paved frontage on Love Springs Road and more than 2,000 on Thornbird Road. A public water line runs along Love Springs Road.
This property offers a high percentage of useful land. Floodplains associated with the streams are narrow, and only the streambeds are designated on national wetlands inventory maps. No FEMA floodplains are designated on the property. A plat prepared in 1980 describes the tract as 100.69 acres. One graveled driveway enters the eastern portion of the tract. There are no structures or other improvements on the land.
The property is all wooded with a mix of mature hardwood and planted pine.
The surrounding neighborhood contains well-kept homes and new construction. There are planned subdivisions within a mile to the east and west. This tract is about 1.5 miles by road from exit 87 on I-85. This exit has been redesigned, improved, and completed as part of the multiyear widening project on the interstate between Spartanburg and the North Carolina state line. Commercial projects within three miles of Exit 87 include a new Dollar Tree, DHL distribution warehouses, and the Gaffney Outlet Marketplace.
Soils are mostly clay loam or sandy clay loam and are generally suited to the placement of roads, driveways, and houses. USDA soil maps show about 75% of the tract as having no limitation for the construction of dwellings without basements and more than 80% of the tract as likely to support septic tank drain fields. These maps are general in nature and should not be regarded as a guarantee for these uses, the owner has not had the soils studied by a scientist. Soil maps and descriptions are included in the documents section.
The property contains a small landfill (+/- 200-foot by 100-foot L-shaped trench) that predates the seller’s ownership. This was a permitted landfill operated for +/- 6 weeks in 1976, when SCDHEC suspended the permit due to concerns. Remediation was conducted in the early 1990’s, and monitoring continued until 2021. In a certificate of completion letter dated April 2021, the SC Department of Health and Environmental Control acknowledged that required work had been completed and no further environmental assessment is required. The entire area is now wooded with little apparent signs of past disturbance. A portion of the area (approximately 145’ x 85’) is to remain undisturbed to protect a subsurface liner that was installed during remediation. Out of an abundance of caution, the seller will have the area not to be disturbed marked on the ground and has drafted covenants to be included in the deed of conveyance stating the grantee shall not permit any activity that would disturb this area. The SCDHEC certificate of completion letter and a draft of language for the covenants are included in the documents section. Further information is available on request.
The property is about 7 miles from Gaffney, 13 miles from Spartanburg, 44 miles from Greenville, and 60 miles from Charlotte, NC. All distances are approximate road miles to the center of town. The county tax map number is 029-00-00-026.000.
