Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
Set on a 1.274-acre lot, this commercial-zoned property includes a solid limestone ranch home built in 1960 and a separate 896-square-foot pole building. The residence offers 2,032 square feet of living space with three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, plus spacious living areas featuring built-in bookshelves and a double-sided fireplace. Recent interior updates include removal of all carpet to expose the original hardwood flooring, along with new flooring, a new vanity, and a new toilet in the hallway bath. The en suite bath has new flooring and a new toilet. The dilapidated pool has been removed and the area has been filled in to create additional outdoor green space or room for expansion, and the home includes an attached two-car garage.
The property is located on State Road 46, providing straightforward visibility and access for a range of business uses. While it is currently operating as a residential homestead, the zoning supports commercial use, offering flexibility for buyers who want to combine a home base with income or business-oriented operations.
For tenants, buyers, or operators seeking a property that can accommodate both practical office or workspace needs and on-site storage, the pole building provides a dedicated footprint separate from the residence. The existing home configuration, garage, and updated interior finishes can support a variety of owner-occupied or mixed-use plans, subject to applicable requirements for the intended commercial use.

Financial Insights
Estimated NOI and Cap Rate
NOI = area × lease_rate × (100 − vacancy) / 100 × (1 − expense_ratio). Net Operating Income — what the owner takes home each year before mortgage payments and income tax. Effective rent (asking rent minus vacancy losses) minus operating costs (taxes, insurance, maintenance, management).
NOI / Yr
$16,585
Cap rate = NOI / list price × 100. Capitalization rate — annual return on a fully cash purchase, before financing. NOI divided by price. Higher means more income per dollar invested, but usually also more risk or older condition. 5–8% is typical for stabilized commercial property; double digits often signal distressed deals.
Cap Rate
3.69%
Suggested Prices Based on Cap Rates
Cap rates vary significantly by property type, market, and asset quality.
Typical U.S. stable-market ranges:
Multifamily — 4.5% to 6.5% (Class A in primary markets often sub-5%; Class C in secondary markets 6%+)
Industrial / Logistics — 5.0% to 7.0% (compressed heavily in recent years due to e-commerce demand)
Office — 6.5% to 9%+ (wide spread post-2020; CBD Class A vs. suburban Class B varies dramatically)
Retail — 5.5% to 8.5% (grocery-anchored on the low end, unanchored strip centers higher)
Hospitality / Hotels — 7.5% to 10%+ (higher due to operational risk)
Self-Storage — 5.5% to 7.5%
Medical Office — 6.0% to 7.5%
Net Lease (single tenant, credit) — 5.0% to 7.0% depending on tenant credit and lease term
Rules of thumb:
Primary markets (NYC, SF, LA, Boston, DC) trade at lower cap rates than secondary/tertiary markets, often by 100–200 bps (bps, aka basis points; 1 bp = 0.01%).
Class A assets trade ~50–150 bps tighter than Class B, and Class B tighter than Class C.
Cap rates move inversely with price — a lower cap rate means a higher price for the same NOI.
Spread to the 10-year Treasury is a common benchmark; historically 200–400 bps over the 10-year.
