(Important Note: A liability waiver must be signed prior to showings for safety purposes.) Step into a unique opportunity with this commercial property brimming with history and potential, located in a high-visibility area on South Main Street. Previously operated as a winery and bar, this building is now a blank slate ready for your next big idea. The seller had begun transforming the space into a vibrant event center, and blueprints for this vision are available and attached to the listing—be sure to review them for inspiration. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, the project remains unfinished and has been stripped down to the studs, allowing full flexibility for your own commercial development plans. Whether you're dreaming of a restaurant, boutique, art studio, co-working space, or revitalizing it as an event venue, the structural groundwork has already begun. Brand-new floor joists have been installed throughout the entire first floor, providing a solid foundation for your custom build-out. The property is classified as a detached row building, featuring two connected structures—the main building and a rear garage—joined only through the basement. Above ground, these two buildings remain physically detached, offering versatility in use and layout. The garage in the backyard could serve as additional event space, storage, or a secondary commercial function depending on your plans. The outdoor area offers even more value. The land is flat and open, suitable for conversion into a parking lot, which would be a huge asset for customer or guest accessibility. A drainage system has already been installed in the grassy section of the lot, helping to mitigate flooding and making the site even more attractive for future development. For businesses anticipating high foot traffic, this property offers excellent accessibility with two separate entry points, making it easier to manage crowd flow and enhance convenience for both entry and exit during events or daily operations. This property is ideal for an entrepreneur, investor, or creative visionary ready to bring new life into a building with character, history, and room to grow.
