Fully Renovated Commercial Flex Space at Prime Intersection – Ideal for Retail, Office, Franchise, and Investment Uses – Outstanding Visibility in High-Growth Emanuel County Corridor (Near I-16 & New Vidalia Bypass)
Welcome to 3851 Harrington Street, an exceptional, fully renovated commercial property strategically situated at the high-traffic signalized intersection of GA-86 (Harrington St) and Oak Park Avenue in Lyons, Georgia, part of the historic Oak Park community within Emanuel County. This turnkey commercial asset is located just off busy U.S. Highway 1, offering superb exposure and access, and approximately 18-20 miles from Interstate 16—Georgia's essential freight and logistics artery.
Positioned prominently on a 0.31-acre corner lot comprised of parcels OP1 041A and OP1 041, this property features a fully remodeled 2,740 square-foot building designed for versatility, ease of use, and immediate occupancy. C-3 zoning provides exceptional flexibility, accommodating various business applications including retail stores, specialty boutiques, professional offices, restaurants, medical and dental clinics, automotive services, industrial uses, distribution facilities, and franchise operations. Buyers are encouraged to verify specific intended uses with Emanuel County authorities.
The site boasts excellent frontage of 80 feet along Harrington Street, complemented by rare paved parking capable of accommodating over ten vehicles—a substantial advantage in this location. An existing exterior canopy enhances the property's functionality, ideal for drive-thru businesses, loading/unloading, customer entry, branding, or special event activities.
This commercial property has undergone meticulous and extensive renovations, thoughtfully designed to meet contemporary operational standards, reduce start-up costs, and significantly improve energy efficiency. Recent upgrades include two brand-new GrandAire HVAC units (each 36,000 BTU capacity), providing year-round climate control and energy savings. The electrical system has been comprehensively modernized, featuring a new 100-amp panel with labeled circuits, secure metal conduit, and upgraded 240-volt service. LED lighting fixtures throughout the interior and exterior enhance energy efficiency, ambiance, and visibility.
Additional premium upgrades include polished concrete floors suitable for heavy-duty commercial usage, programmable Honeywell thermostats, dual MERV-13 filters for enhanced indoor air quality, insulated ductwork for comfort and efficiency, and a State Sandblaster Turbo 82-gallon water heater (9kW/150 PSI capacity) designed to handle high-volume demand. Two ADA-compliant restrooms have been elegantly finished with cultured marble vanities and contemporary tile work. The flexible interior layout provides spacious open showroom areas, private offices, secure storage spaces, and a utility room. Expansive storefront windows offer maximum natural light, perfect for retail displays or welcoming professional environments.
To further enhance operational ease, the property includes full public utility access—municipal water, sewer, electricity, and high-speed cable/internet availability. Significantly, this property is located in Flood Zone X, a low-risk zone providing substantial insurance savings and added peace of mind. Annual property taxes are exceptionally low at just $289.37 (2023).
Environmental compliance has been thoroughly addressed and documented. The property includes a verified Underground Tank System (UTS) letter, offering reassurance and simplifying the financing and acquisition process for investors, entrepreneurs, franchisees, and owner-users. Full environmental records, along with comprehensive legal documents, aerial surveys, detailed plats, tax information, and seller disclosures, are readily available for buyer due diligence.
This property is poised for substantial growth and increased demand driven by significant regional infrastructure investments, notably the U.S. 1/SR 4 Vidalia Bypass expansion project currently underway. This pivotal construction is approximately 60% complete, set for a December 2025 completion, and includes widening and reconstructing nearly five miles of SR 4. Key aspects of the project involve the construction of six major bridges and improved intersections at U.S. Hwy 280, Georgia Hwy 292, Old Normantown Road, and Victory Circle. This significant infrastructure investment promises enhanced commercial traffic flow, improved logistics routes, and substantial long-term economic growth for businesses located in and around Lyons, Oak Park, and Emanuel County.
Regional economic momentum is further supported by proximity to the rapidly expanding Hyundai Metaplant industrial corridor (~65 miles), Savannah ports, and Interstate 16 connectivity. Buyers of this commercial asset stand to benefit from increased customer traffic, logistical efficiency, and future asset appreciation, making this property a particularly attractive long-term investment.
This versatile, fully upgraded commercial flex space offers investors, owner-users, franchise operators, and businesses a rare opportunity to establish or expand operations in a strategically valuable location. Whether leveraging the property for owner-occupied businesses, franchise expansions, retail operations, or stable commercial rental income, the property's turnkey condition, modern features, documented compliance, and ideal location represent an extraordinary combination of visibility, value, and versatility.
