Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Located at 280 Gunter Avenue, this 2,812-square-foot storefront property is currently zoned for Business and was formerly operated as an antique shop. Known as the Spanish House, the building dates to 1927 and features 18-inch-thick poured-concrete exterior walls with Spanish-style stucco. A separate two-car garage is included.

The property is being sold as-is and marketed as commercial rather than residential. The tile roof is partially complete, and roof leaks have caused some interior damage.
