Prime In-Town Mixed-Use Brick Building This versatile brick building offers a significant investment opportunity in the heart of town. Combining high-visibility commercial space with immediate residential potential, the property features substantial recent infrastructure upgrades and is being offered at a dramatic price reduction to account for the necessary sprinkler system installation. Property Highlights Commercial (1st Floor): 2,472 sq. ft. of flexible space, perfectly suited for retail or professional endeavors. Residential (2nd Floor): Two newly constructed 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartments featuring high ceilings and expansive, classic windows. Office (3rd Floor): Dedicated, owner-occupied office space with a private bathroom. Modern Systems: 10 heat pumps installed in 2024 service the entire building. Parking: Includes dedicated off-street parking, a premium in-town asset. Strategic Upside & Expansion Current town regulations permit one rental unit on the second floor, with the other requiring owner occupancy. The property is priced to reflect the buyer's requirement to install a sprinkler system. Beyond allowing both second-floor units to become fully rentable, the installation of a sprinkler system unlocks further potential for additional apartment units within the building, offering significant long-term growth and income optimization.
