Property Description
Business owner retiring-offering a rare commercial real estate investment opportunity to reimagine this well-maintained, income-producing property for your next venture or portfolio expansion. Currently operating as a long-standing daycare and preschool, this versatile mixed-use property is primed for transformation with multiple high-value exit strategies. Ideally positioned for commercial mixed-use zoning potential, continue operating a business while incorporating comfortable residential living quarters. Investors will appreciate the ability to convert into a multi-unit income property, with potential for 2-3 rental units utilizing the existing footprint, strategic bathroom enhancements, an existing 2nd-floor apartment, and an exterior-access finished basement-ideal for separate tenant entry and rental flexibility. Alternatively, reimagine the property as a multi-family investment property or fully deconvert into a spacious single-family home, perfectly suited for multi-generational living with defined separation, privacy, and flexible floorplan options to accommodate extended family or dual living needs. Set on two village lots, the property features a fenced yard, a blacktop half basketball court, and ample outdoor space for expansion, recreation, or value-add improvements. The oversized barn/garage offers exceptional storage, workshop, or contractor space, complemented by an attached one-car garage currently utilized by the tenant. Meticulously maintained with consistent interior updates since 1992, this is a rare opportunity for investors, developers, or owner-occupants to secure a flexible, high-potential property with strong income-producing capability, redevelopment upside, and long-term ROI potential.
