Extreme northwest Elbert County will be seeing commercial development at the intersection of Delbert and Singing Hills Roads. This will be the first significant commercial development the area has seen for several decades. Trevey Commercial Real Estate, the largest commercial real estate brokerage company in Elbert County and the surrounding areas, recently announced the sale of 8.25 acres located at 60 County Road 166. The property was sold by Anthony E. Breglio to CB Independence Holding Company for future development for commercial and retail businesses. Breglio was represented by Mitch Trevey. The parcel is meant to serve the immediate area and the newly developed Independence community. As part of the development plan for the new Independence community, Delbert Road is planned to extend south from Singing Hills to Hilltop Road. This extension will bring vitality to this corner property and improve access and transportation connectivity for the northwest Elbert County area. Though no plans are currently set as to what businesses will go into the space, Mitch Trevey of Trevey Commercial Real Estate gave his thoughts on what he thinks would work best for the land.
