Dual-Shop Auto Facility + Real Estate in Prime Zoning Corridor
Business Description
This rare Bay Area two-building property includes 8,000± SF across dual-auto facilities with fully operational body and mechanical shops. Situated on a 10,019 SF corner lot in a highly trafficked commercial corridor with C-2 zoning, this asset provides incredible long-term upside. The site features high visibility with 100' of frontage on a major street and four curb cuts.
Existing structures offer excellent usability: high ceilings (12’), active 3-phase power, four roll-up bays, natural gas heat, and a grandfathered-in downdraft heated paint booth—an increasingly rare entitlement in the area.
Buildings are well-organized for dual-tenancy or continued unified use, with separate addresses and entrances. One building houses a fully equipped paint/body shop with a natural gas heated downdraft booth and dual paint systems. The second features a full mechanical workshop with lifts, loft storage, and adjacent customer office space. An enclosed paved yard (~1,000 SF) provides outdoor storage and parts/collision vehicle staging.
The surrounding corridor is seeing revitalization, with nearby residential demand and city receptiveness to mixed-use redevelopment. Current zoning may permit development of up to 20 units per parcel if repurposed.
Ideal for owner-users in the automotive industry or opportunistic investors seeking rental income or future densification. Seller open to remaining short-term to assist in transition.
