Overview

Description

An opportunity to develop this commercial property lot. A true value-add project situated on a sweeping, near-two-acre lot, this property features an enormous 5,000-square-foot building with exceptional ceiling heights. A former school and telephone manufacturing building. While the structure is in need of significant repairs and is being sold as-is, this makes for a blank canvas for contractors, investors, or business owners looking to build equity from the ground up. With public sewer access, commercial zoning, and ample outdoor space for parking, storage, or expansion, this property is ready to be completely reimagined.
