This 4,300 square foot metal building is positioned on 1 acre of land zoned L-1 Light Industrial, with an additional adjacent 1-acre parcel included in the sale.

Building Features
The structure is a clear-span metal building with a 12-foot ceiling height and slab foundation, offering three 10-foot overhead doors for easy access and efficient workflow. Power infrastructure includes 3-phase electric service, suitable for heavy-duty machinery and fabrication needs. The building also includes approximately 450 square feet of heated and cooled office space, plus a small mezzanine area above for storage.
Equipment Included

4 one-ton overhead lifts
All equipment is older, but suitable for continued use or refurbishment. This setup makes the property a turnkey option for a machinist or metalworker looking to establish or relocate operations.
