Mills River Logistics Center — 232 Brown Ridge Rd, Mills River, NC Hughes Commercial Properties
01 / Overview

Two Class A logistics buildings on 74.54 acres.

Mills River Logistics Center is a 517,860 SF speculative logistics development one mile from Asheville Regional Airport with immediate I-26 access. Two concrete tilt-up buildings deliver in the first quarter of 2028, available for full-building lease, multi-tenant division down to approximately 50,000 SF suites, or build-to-suit. Hughes Commercial Properties owns, entitles, builds, leases, and manages the asset directly.

Henderson County holds 12.3M SF of industrial inventory at 5.4% vacancy, and much of the existing stock is functionally obsolete. Competing supply has effectively absorbed.
