Built from locally reclaimed barn wood, this one-of-a-kind property features over 1,800 SF on the main floor with seating for 50+ guests, additional enclosed patio seating, and a spacious wraparound porch overlooking the beautifully landscaped backyard. Excellent visibility and steady traffic make it ideal for a restaurant, coffee shop, retail space, event venue, bed & breakfast, boutique, or countless other ventures.
