Business owner retiring after more than 30 years, creating a rare opportunity to acquire a highly versatile mixed-use property in the heart of a caring small-town community. Whether you're an investor seeking cash flow, an entrepreneur looking for a live-work setup, or a business owner ready to expand, this property offers exceptional flexibility and long-term potential.

The established commercial layout allows for immediate occupancy or adaptation to suit your business needs. The upper level features a private 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment, providing valuable rental income, employee housing, or owner-occupied living quarters. Situated on two village lots, the property includes a fenced outdoor area, blacktop recreation space, an attached 1-car garage, and an oversized barn/2-car garage offering additional storage, workshop space, contractor facilities, or future business expansion possibilities. Well maintained with ongoing updates and improvements since 1992, this property presents multiple value-add opportunities, including continued mixed-use operation, commercial redevelopment, additional rental income strategies, or conversion to other permitted uses. Invest in your future while becoming part of a thriving small-town community. TIF Incentives available. Properties offering this combination of commercial space, residential income, ample storage, and redevelopment potential are rarely available.
