Overview
ROTH Real Estate Group is pleased to present a rare owner-user restaurant opportunity in the highly desirable Granville, Ohio market.
Located at 1256 Columbus Road, this 2,898 square foot freestanding restaurant building sits on 0.85 acres with 50 dedicated parking spaces and an existing drive-thru lane. The property underwent a complete renovation in 2021, creating a fully built-out restaurant facility with a first-class commercial kitchen and modern infrastructure designed for high-volume food service operations.
Turnkey restaurant properties with drive-thru capability are extremely limited in the Granville market. This location provides a unique opportunity for an owner-operator, franchise group, or restaurant concept seeking a move-in ready facility with strong visibility and easy access.
The building is positioned along Columbus Road, one of the primary commercial corridors connecting Granville with Newark and the greater Columbus metropolitan area. This corridor provides consistent commuter traffic and access to surrounding residential communities.
Granville is widely regarded as one of the most desirable communities in Central Ohio. The area benefits from strong local demographics, tourism, and the presence of Denison University, a nationally recognized liberal arts college with more than 2,000 students, faculty members, and visiting families who support the local restaurant and retail economy.
The surrounding retail corridor includes a strong mix of national and local businesses such as Kroger, CVS Pharmacy, McDonald’s, Taco Bell, Speedway, Whit’s Frozen Custard, and various locally owned restaurants and retailers. These businesses create consistent daily traffic and contribute to a vibrant commercial environment.
The property’s existing infrastructure makes it well suited for a variety of restaurant concepts including quick-service restaurants, fast casual dining, coffee concepts, beverage brands, sandwich or deli concepts, and regional or national franchise operators.
Restaurant construction costs have increased significantly in recent years, often exceeding several hundred dollars per square foot. Acquiring a second-generation restaurant property with a fully built-out kitchen allows operators to significantly reduce development costs and open for business much faster than ground-up construction.
Central Ohio continues to experience significant economic and population growth, particularly throughout Licking County, where the new Intel semiconductor manufacturing development is expected to bring thousands of jobs and substantial residential and commercial development to the region over the coming years.
Freestanding restaurant properties with drive-thru capability, strong visibility, and ample parking rarely become available in Granville. This offering represents an excellent opportunity for restaurant operators or investors seeking a strategic location within one of Central Ohio’s most attractive small-town markets.
