About this home
Exceptional commercial opportunity in the heart of downtown Burnsville. This 3,443± square foot building is situated on a highly visible 0.85-acre corner parcel with access from three roads, including West Main Street, providing outstanding exposure, excellent accessibility, and strong daily traffic counts. Located within Burnsville's C-3 Highway Business District, the property offers tremendous flexibility for a wide variety of commercial uses. Potential uses include professional and medical offices, dental or veterinary clinics, retail sales, restaurants, fitness facilities, banks, studios, galleries, personal service businesses, educational or training facilities, mixed-use development, and numerous other commercial ventures. The expansive lot provides ample parking, convenient ingress and egress, and room for future expansion or redevelopment. Extensive capital improvements have already been completed, allowing a new owner to focus on operations rather than major infrastructure expenses. Recent updates include a new roof, new HVAC system with warranty, upgraded 200-amp electrical service, new water and sewer lines extended to the road, a commercial-grade natural gas line, a 200,000 BTU commercial water heater, and a fire hydrant located on the property. The building also presents an excellent live/work or mixed-use opportunity, with the potential to combine residential and commercial space subject to applicable approvals and zoning requirements. Its highly visible downtown location, substantial infrastructure upgrades, flexible zoning, and large parcel size make it an attractive option for owner-occupants, investors, developers, or entrepreneurs seeking a strategic presence in one of Western North Carolina's most vibrant mountain communities. Rarely does a property offer this combination of location, accessibility, infrastructure, and development potential in downtown Burnsville.
