Property Description
This 2.78-acre commercial property offers exceptional land value paired with a fully renovated office building, making it an ideal opportunity for an owner-occupant or investor seeking long-term upside, flexibility, and future expansion potential. Positioned along a high-visibility corridor with approximately 12,500 vehicles per day, the site benefits from strong daily traffic exposure and ample on-site parking, enhancing both usability and redevelopment potential.

Improvements include new flooring, modern lighting, and a redesigned office layout focused on efficiency and functionality. The space offers four private offices upstairs and additional office space on the lower level, totaling approximately 8 work areas.

Mechanical systems include two-zone central air conditioning and two furnaces for year-round comfort and efficiency. Exterior features include approximately 12 private on-site parking spaces with easy access for employees and clients. The expansive acreage enhances usability and provides significant potential for future expansion, additional parking, or redevelopment.
