Overview

Description

Opportunity awaits in the heart of downtown Nelson. This mixed use property offers a versatile main level commercial space, a spacious upper level apartment, and extensive lower level storage. Positioned along a well traveled downtown corridor that has previously reported traffic counts of approximately 15,000 vehicles per day, the storefront provides excellent visibility for retail, office, service based businesses, or a variety of entrepreneurial ventures. The property also includes ownership of both driveways and an oversized two car garage, offering valuable parking and access flexibility. Upstairs, the residential unit offers an ideal setup for an owner operator looking to live on site, provide employee housing, or generate additional rental income. The apartment features large living spaces filled with natural light, two bedrooms, a full kitchen, two bathrooms, newer windows installed in 2020, and additional flex space that could serve as storage, office space, or a sunroom. Original woodwork adds character throughout, while the layout offers opportunities to update and tailor the space to your vision. The lower level provides substantial storage and utility space, adding even more functionality for business operations. A unique opportunity to establish your business while benefiting from additional residential space in a prime downtown Nelson location near the Mississippi River.
