700 E Street presents a rare opportunity for both owner-users and developers in the heart of San Rafael. This ±4,700 square foot office/flex building sits on a generous ±9,374 square foot lot and is divided into 5 separately metered suites, with a total of 20 small-format offices, many featuring modern updates such as LED lighting, vinyl plank flooring, and dual-pane windows. With a Walk Score® of 96, the property offers immediate access to downtown restaurants, shops, and services, plus proximity to SMART rail and major highways for regional connectivity.
For owner-users, the building provides the ideal platform to establish a headquarters, medical office, or professional practice. Occupy the space you need and lease the balance to generate steady income, offsetting mortgage costs. With a recent appraisal above asking (May 2024) and SBA financing available with as little as 10% down, the property is exceptionally well positioned for small business acquisition and long-term stability. Twenty dedicated on-site parking spaces—a rarity in downtown San Rafael—add significant value and convenience for clients, staff, and visitors.
For developers and investors, the site offers compelling upside. The flexible T4N 40/50 zoning allows for a broad range of uses, including office, medical, retail, and residential. This transitional mixed-use designation encourages creative repositioning and redevelopment, making the property a strong candidate for future value creation. Current tenancy is primarily month-to-month, generating holding income while allowing maximum flexibility for a buyer to implement their vision.
Whether reimagined as a mixed-use development, held as a stable income-producing asset, or customized as a flagship office location, 700 E Street delivers multiple exit strategies. Its combination of location, zoning, and functionality makes it a strategic acquisition for today with long-term growth potential.
