This exceptional 186-acre property in Troutman, NC, presents a unique investment opportunity: a fully operational zoo. Located near Charlotte with convenient I-77 access, this established business boasts multiple revenue streams. Income is generated through daily admission fees, tiered "animal encounter" experiences, a gift shop, field trips, birthday parties, group events, a summer zookeeper camp, and a holiday light drive-thru. The sale includes the land, existing business, inventory, and animals. The zoo features a drive-thru section with hoof stock animals (Watusi, water buffalo, eland, blackbuck, zebra, emus, etc.) and a walk-around section with exotic animals (tigers, lions, giraffes, kangaroos, monkeys, etc.). Additional amenities include a carousel and train ride. Multiple on-site residences provide housing for staff and management. The property is zoned RA and has an existing APHIS Class C Exhibitor permit (55-C-0272). A buyer will need to obtain/qualify for a similar permit to continue zoo operations. Further details are available upon request. The website, www.zootasticpark.com, offers additional information.
