Overview

This for-sale retail building totals approximately 9,800 square feet and is currently operating as a furniture store. The layout includes multiple bathrooms and offices, supporting a customer-facing showroom and back-of-house space. The property also benefits from recent updates, including an updated metal roof and an AC system. The seller is retiring, and the opportunity includes the option to continue with the established business for a more immediate operating setup.

Located at 813 3rd Avenue in Lake Charles, Louisiana, the property sits on a high-visibility corner lot. It is positioned just off Interstate 10, providing convenient access for customers and deliveries. The corner location supports strong street presence for a retail operator seeking dependable storefront exposure.

For tenants, buyers, or operators, the existing configuration is well-suited to retail use that needs both customer space and office or service areas. The inclusion of bathrooms and offices can help support day-to-day operations without requiring extensive immediate buildout. With the updated roof and AC, this is a practical option for someone looking to take over an operating retail facility on a prominent corner site.
