Property Description
High-visibility former restaurant opportunity located directly on Thomas Road in the heart of Midtown Phoenix. This ±2,762 SF freestanding building sits on an oversized ±0.75-acre C-2 zoned parcel-providing excellent parking (34 spaces), strong frontage, and flexibility for restaurant, QSR, or freestanding retail use. Recently improved in 2022 with new kitchen equipment, flooring, ceilings, plumbing, HVAC modifications, lighting, and refreshed dining areas, offering a true turn-key foundation for operators or owner/users. The large lot allows for potential drive-thru integration or expanded outdoor/parking layouts, uncommon for the corridor. Additional upside includes an income-producing billboard lease in place through 2028. Positioned within a sub-5% vacancy trade area surrounded by dense residential and major arterials, this is a rare infill pad with strong fundamentals and multiple paths to value creation.
