Former fire station converted to functional commercial / contractor space offering five oversized drive-in bays, high ceilings, flexible indoor storage, and outdoor yard area on approximately 0.70 acres of commercially zoned land.

Pricing Support
$197/SF sits inside the local band for older industrial / flex / garage buildings ($150–$250/SF) and below mid-range for better-condition warehouse product. Replacement cost of comparable bay space exceeds the asking price. Location premium, scarce oversized-bay inventory near the MA line, land value, and lender modeling at the $750K level further support the number.
Key Owner Benefits
• Full mortgage interest deduction
• Depreciation shelter
• Principal paydown builds equity every month
• Operating and business write-offs (tools, improvements, vehicle, marketing, etc.)
• Control over tenants, improvements, and exit timing
• Future optionality: full auto shop conversion, pure storage, condo-style subdivision, or refinance
