High-Visibility Office Building | 233' Oak Ridge Hwy Frontage | 0.47 Acre Lot
Excellent owner-user opportunity in the heart of Karns. This 1,450 SF professional office building sits on a highly visible 0.47-acre lot with 233 feet of frontage along busy Oak Ridge Highway (TN-62), a major Karns corridor carrying over 16,000 vehicles per day, offering outstanding exposure for professional or service-based businesses.
Built in 1986 and long used as a successful insurance agency office, the building is configured for efficient professional use with three private offices plus additional open office/work areas, providing flexibility for a variety of business types. Ideal for insurance, medical, counseling, legal, real estate, or professional office users.
The interior includes two full bathrooms, a partial kitchen with sink, dishwasher, and storage, multiple closets, and a dedicated storage room. The building is wired for internet/ethernet and supported by a security system and exterior cameras.
Recent updates include a 2024 water heater and parking lot seal, with the HVAC system recently serviced and operating properly.
Exterior features include a pylon sign for business visibility, a flagpole, and at least five dedicated parking spaces, with additional room to expand parking in the rear of the property (subject to county approval).
Located in the center of the Karns community, the property sits directly across from the Karns Community Center and Karns Elementary School and directly in front of Karns Middle School, generating strong daily traffic and visibility. The surrounding corridor includes established professional service businesses such as medical, dental, veterinary, and insurance offices. The property also serves a strong Karns trade area with nearly 100,000 residents within five miles and average household incomes exceeding $117,000.
The nearly half-acre lot provides flexibility for future expansion or redevelopment, making this property attractive for both owner-users and long-term investors.
Quality commercial office furniture may convey with the property, providing a potential turn-key office solution for the next owner.
