Positioned on direct US-40 frontage in Kansas City's Jackson County, 14901 E US Highway 40 is a 4.44-acre commercial site purpose-built for auto, contractor, or light-industrial operations. The property sits on one of Kansas City's primary east-west corridors, generating 24,500 vehicles per day past the site, with Noland Road just a quarter mile away at 48,300 VPD. The location places an operator 10 minutes from Independence town center and 15 minutes from Downtown KC, surrounded by an established mix of auto, retail, and light-industrial neighbors.
The 3,500 SF building is configured as a 1,700 SF shop and 1,800 SF garage, with 5 drive-in doors including one lift-height bay — well-equipped for auto service, fleet maintenance, or contractor operations. An upper-level residential unit is included within the building, offering on-site living capability for an owner-operator. Roughly 3 of the 4.44 acres are gated and usable, providing substantial secured yard space for inventory, equipment, or vehicle storage. The site previously operated as a gas station and used-car lot; underground storage tanks have been removed with MO DNR environmental sign-off on file — a critical due diligence item already resolved for the buyer.
Income and operational infrastructure are in place at closing: a billboard on the property generates $6,000 annually under a 25-year lease from 2004, set for renegotiation in 2029. A Used Auto Dealer's license is available for transfer from the seller, providing a qualified buyer with immediate operational capability. At $695,000 for 4.44 acres with US-40 frontage and this infrastructure in place, the pricing reflects a compelling basis for an owner-user or operator in the auto or trade sector.
