458 Second Avenue presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial industrial manufacturing facility in the heart of North Central Ohio. Positioned within the Tiffin corporate limits and extending partly into unzoned Hopewell Township, the property offers an exceptional combination of scale, infrastructure, and long-term adaptability for modern industrial users. Its strategic location provides immediate access to U.S. 224 and convenient connectivity to major regional markets including Toledo, Cleveland, Columbus, and Findlay, making it well suited for both regional distribution and specialized manufacturing operations.
The facility has been continuously improved over decades and now features multiple integrated building sections with durable metal and concrete block construction. Ceiling heights range from 14 feet in the original portion to 22 feet in the later warehouse expansions, allowing flexibility for diverse industrial workflows. A robust logistics profile includes 20 dock positions, six drive-in doors, and a 200-foot truck court, supporting efficient movement of materials. Importantly, the site is served by Northern Ohio & Western Railway with interchange access to CSX and Norfolk Southern, supplying dual long-haul rail connectivity for shippers seeking multimodal capability.
Power and mechanical systems are substantial, with multiple substations, air rotation furnaces, extensive sprinkler protection, and both city water and on-site storage with a booster pump. The property includes approximately 200 auto parking spaces and dedicated trailer parking along the western boundary. The surrounding business ecosystem includes major manufacturing employers and benefits from proximity to two universities, creating a reliable workforce pipeline.
With an asking price of $15,000,000, this offering provides investors or owner-users a compelling opportunity to secure a large-scale, rail-served industrial asset in a business-friendly, workforce-rich Ohio community.
