402 S Main St Cross Plains, TX 76443

Location, Location, Location! Isn't that the famous quote for real estate, especially commercial property? Here it is, a wonderful 50 ft x 140 ft commercial location on Main St. just north of the 4-way stop in Cross Plains. The historic Icehouse is a perfect location for any kind of business you have in mind. The 2,175 sq ft brick building was built circa 1912 when the railroad came through town. It has a metal gable roof with a parapet wall on the front and 11 ft ceilings inside. The slab foundation also comes out front for a 10 ft porch the width of the building. The porch has a slope on the south side so you could roll up inventory if needed. When you enter the front door, there is a 10 x 10 foyer, a 10 x 10 office with a built-in bookcase. The 10 x 38 front room has 2 large picture windows; this room could be a display area, retail space or more offices. The main area or warehouse space is 38 x 38 with a half bath big enough to add a shower if needed. The bathroom is raised above the concrete slab so you can change or add plumbing. Off the main room is a 10 x 15 storage room with shelving on 3 walls. At the back of the building, there is a roll up door for loading and unloading trucks. Behind the building the slab is ground level which would make an excellent courtyard or parking area. There is a metal privacy fence all around the exterior of the property. Inside the back fence is a grass patch approx. 18 ft by 50 ft. Historical stories say that Robert E. Howard held boxing matches in the area directly behind the building. With Main Street access across the front and SW 4th St along the north side, there is plenty of parking space. The tax office has 402 S Main St as the address but the 911 address is 400 S Main St. This property is sold AS-IS and is not for lease and we do not have a survey.
