    Overview

    The property consists of two roadside buildings tied to Route 66 history. The original building was built in the early 1940s and began as Delano Thrifty Service, selling gas and snacks, with a small one-bedroom apartment in the back. The lower level also includes a 2-bedroom apartment. The second building was constructed in 1950 and was once Thrifty Inn Roadside Diner (approximately 800 square feet), with a 2-bedroom apartment downstairs.

    The site offers 548 feet of frontage on I-44, with visibility described as prominent for both directions. The remarks state that 35,000 cars and trucks pass within 200 feet of the front door daily. A billboard-ready structure is also described as being visible from both directions about 3/4 mile out. The property is located at 12661 Old Highway 66 in Rolla, Missouri, with westbound access noted as about 1 mile away at Exit 189 near Love’s and a new QuikTrip Travel Stop.

    For tenants, buyers, and owner-operators, the combination of commercial space and multiple residential units can support a mixed-use setup where an operator can run a retail or related business while generating rental income from the on-site apartments. The property also includes site and utility components noted in the remarks, including a deep well and two commercial septic tanks, along with steel beams set in concrete from a prior double-sided billboard setup for potential signage customization.
