Property Description
RARE downtown Ellijay commercial opportunity with alcohol sales approval & endless potential! Located at 28 N Main Street right in the heart of downtown Ellijay, this fully renovated approximately 2,000 sq ft commercial building offers the PERFECT location surrounded by shops, restaurants, wineries, & North Georgia tourism attractions, while also being less than 10 minutes to Walmart in Ellijay. One of the last remaining properties in the area allowing alcohol sales - and potentially the last address on the street permitted to sell alcohol - making it ideal for a winery, brewery, restaurant, tasting room, soda bar, cafe, retail shop, or mixed-use concept. Located in an Opportunity Zone, this property is highly desirable for investors looking for long-term growth potential & possible tax advantages. Selling the building & land only - giving you the opportunity to create your perfect business in the heart of Ellijay or even operate 2 separate businesses under one roof. Perfect setup for a retail store or boutique in the front with a second store, wine bar, cafe, or restaurant in the back. The back portion already has kitchen infrastructure from a previous restaurant, making it even easier to bring your vision to life. High-visibility location with heavy foot traffic & easy access from all paved roads. Outdoor seating adds even more value & customer appeal, with the possibility to enclose the outside area for additional seating or usable square footage. Major upgrades already completed include 12 ft ceilings, commercial triple-layer rolled roofing, a brand-new 50-year roof, all new storefront glass, updated electrical, new HVAC ductwork, new flooring with concrete underneath, fresh interior paint, & custom wood wall finishes throughout - giving you one of the most updated buildings in downtown Ellijay, if not the most updated, with a modern, clean, & nearly brand-new feel throughout. Features include public water & sewer, great internet, garbage pickup available, short-term rentals allowed, pets allowed if desired, water access for a soda bar setup, gas hookup for a stove, sink area in the back, 2 half bathrooms, & a 1,500-gallon grease trap already installed. Nearby attractions include many Apple Orchards, Hiking trails, Springer Mountain - the beginning of the Appalachian Trail, Wineries, Amicalola Falls, Fort Mountain State Park, Brasstown Bald, Trout streams, Tubing, Kayaking, Sunflower patches, Pumpkin patches & more!
