Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This sale includes a 900 SF building located on a 105' x 270' lot and offered “AS IS” at an online public auction. The property was previously operated as a small restaurant with drive-thru business, and prior to that it was a used car lot, leaving room for a variety of commercial re-use scenarios. Showings are set to begin once the locks are changed, with additional open house dates posted as available.

The site is described as being in a high traffic area, supporting visibility and customer-oriented activity. The property’s configuration includes the standalone structure on the large lot footprint, which may be useful for drive-thru or other site-based concepts, subject to applicable approvals.

For buyers and operators seeking a flexible site with restaurant-drive experience, this property offers a straightforward starting point: a modest building and substantial lot size suitable for redevelopment planning. The listing is being sold by court order under Case No. 25 CV 8559 in Franklin County, OH, and the auction terms indicate the property is conveyed “AS IS,” so due diligence is encouraged prior to bidding.

  • As‑is standalone 900 SF building built in 1964
