About this home

Positioned along a prominent commercial corridor in Spruce Pine, this multi-tenant retail property offers an attractive combination of highway exposure, established rental income, and owner-user potential. With approximately 673 feet of frontage along NC Highway 226, the property provides excellent visibility and accessibility for a variety of commercial uses. The retail complex features multiple storefronts with display windows, separate electric meters, and brand-new metal roofing. Three tenant-occupied retail spaces provide existing income, while the approximately 1,200-square-foot former gem shop offers an opportunity for an owner-operated business, additional leasing, or repositioning. Current tenants include a real estate office, clothing boutique, and craft/gift shop, generating approximately $4,000 per month in gross rental income, according to seller-provided information. An additional storage building provides space for inventory, equipment, or other storage needs. Property features include paved customer parking, convenient ground-level access, and a covered area which could be converted to public bench seating or potentially enclosed. Public water and sewer lines are located along the street. The setting also offers attractive natural surroundings, including a pond and creek. Located in a General Business District, the property presents opportunities for continued retail operations, professional offices, specialty businesses, and other uses subject to applicable approvals. Its combination of established tenants, available commercial space, substantial highway frontage, and flexible configuration makes this a compelling opportunity in the Spruce Pine commercial market.
