Modernized Commercial Property with Tremendous Foot Traffic
This modernized commercial property offers a rare combination of convenience, security, and thoughtful upgrades, making it an exceptional investment opportunity. Positioned adjacent to an elementary school, the property enjoys daily exposure to both car and foot traffic from parents, while benefiting from near-constant security with school police presence. The school allows the use of its overflow parking, easily accommodating larger vehicles such as sprinter vans or vehicle-trailer combinations.
The property boasts 21 paved parking spots, including 4 covered spaces in the rear, 2 parallel spots on the side, and 4 front spaces, along with 3 additional spots in the rear alleyway. The parking lot was resurfaced in 2018 and again in 2024 for a pristine appearance and durability. The exterior was repainted in 2018, featuring a two-tone modern design, complemented by custom planters filled with river rock and artificial greenery updated in 2024. New security lighting and taller telephone poles installed in 2018 ensure a well-lit and visually appealing exterior.
A comprehensive remodel in 2018 transformed the interior into a sleek, efficient workspace. The "bullpen" area, created by removing walls, accommodates up to 10 cubicles and is perfect for collaborative activities, training, or holiday gatherings. Overlooking the bullpen are two private offices: a large managerial office with space for up to four desks and a minor-executive office with pocket-door access for privacy and functionality.
The reception area, redesigned with a coffered ceiling, features a steel-framed glass door with a high-security deadbolt and magnetic lock, ensuring controlled access. Inside, guests and staff will appreciate the modern kitchen with custom-built cabinets, butcher block countertops, a glass-front beverage fridge, and a stunning marble backsplash in a herringbone pattern. Two updated restrooms, one discreetly located for employee use, offer added convenience.
Technology and efficiency are prioritized throughout the property. Fiber internet from both AT&T and Spectrum, Cat-6 Ethernet cabling, and an oversized Trane HVAC system (installed in 2018 and still under warranty) ensure high-speed connectivity and comfortable climate control. The building is also equipped with recessed energy-efficient lighting, new insulated ductwork, and advanced alarm and camera systems.
The property’s steel structure over a former wood-frame house provides exceptional durability and flexibility. Wooden studs allow for easy modifications, while the steel exterior is independent of interior framing. The attic, with plywood flooring and electric outlets, offers ample storage and easy access for future wiring or updates. The new steel roof, installed in 2018, is hail-resistant and ideal for solar panels.
Other updates include modern commercial carpet and vinyl flooring, new plumbing and sewage systems, and a 2021 water heater with a safety cutoff sensor. A second restroom was added in 2022, and the rear fencing was upgraded the same year.
This property is situated directly across from a busy VIA bus stop, ensuring additional visibility to potential clientele. With a mix of aesthetic appeal, functional design, and modern amenities, this property is ready to meet the demands of any growing business.
