Executive Summary

Rare Highway Commercial (HC) zoned corner lot in the growing Municipality of Central Elgin — one of the last available commercially zoned parcels in Belmont, Ontario. This is an investment and development opportunity, not a residential sale.
Situated at the high-visibility intersection of Borden Avenue (County Road 34) and Lorne Street, the property comprises two equal parcels totalling 800.6 sq metres (8,620 sq ft) with dual street frontage — one driveway on Borden Ave, one on Lorne Street — physically demonstrating the two-lot configuration.
The property currently generates $1,600/month rental income from a renovated bungalow on a commercial lease. Tenant can be vacated in 60 days. No Landlord and Tenant Board process applies.
A professional severance and development file is fully assembled and available to qualified buyers, including: registered survey by Kim Husted Surveying Ltd., proposed severance sketches (Parcel A and Parcel B, each 400.3 sq m), building envelope illustration, Concept Plan prepared by Nethery Planning (March 2025), pre-consultation record with Municipality of Central Elgin, and current appraisal at $450,000.
The Municipality has indicated openness to commercial development and severance into two independent commercial lots. HC zoning permits retail, office, personal service, restaurant, automotive, medical, and residential uses — maximum flexibility for any buyer.
Located 12 minutes from St. Thomas, site of the Volkswagen EV battery plant and Amazon expansion currently under construction. Located 20 minutes from London, Ontario. Belmont is directly in the path of the strongest regional growth corridor in southwestern Ontario.
Immediate neighbours include a gas station, Tim Hortons, and an automotive dealership — established commercial traffic at this intersection already.
Property is connected to municipal sewer. Two independent driveway accesses. Appraisal on file. No real estate commission — private sale direct from registered owners.
Full Investment and Development Package available upon request including financial scenarios, development renders, and complete planning file.
Suitable for: commercial developer, mixed-use builder, live/work entrepreneur, fix-and-flip investor, or buy-and-hold commercial income buyer.
