Property details

About 717 Central Ave

Charming 2 bedroom apartment in the heart of Summerville with flex space below and over 60' of street frontage, on heavily traveled Central Avenue. Property consists of 2 buildings; the main building houses a retail storefront on the first floor with a 2 bedroom apartment above. The apartment may have STR potential as well since it is one of the permitted uses under the current zoning (see attachments). The second building in the rear contains an additional entertainment space as well as a partially finished upstairs perfect for use as a home office or extra storage area. This is a wonderful opportunity for an owner-operator looking for a live/work site, or an investor looking for a single property with multiple streams of income potential.
