Property Description
CHARACTER • VISIBILITY • MIXED-USE POTENTIAL in the HEART OF SANFORD!
Located just steps from Historic Downtown Sanford, this versatile property is a rare opportunity for investors, business owners, or developers seeking a prime mixed-use site with built-in charm and future growth potential. Originally built in 1932, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath property offers 1,785 SqFt of flexible interior space on an oversized lot (nearly 1/2 acre) — ideal for a variety of commercial, professional, or live/work uses.
With MIXED-USE ZONING, the possibilities are endless: transform the property into a boutique storefront, professional office, salon/spa, creative studio, café, or wellness space — or continue to enjoy it as a unique residential home with business potential. The welcoming light-filled entry makes a perfect reception or lobby area, while the adjacent office space is ideal for private client meetings or workstations. A large main room with a wood-burning fireplace offers flexible layout options for co-working, a showroom, or retail display space. The updated kitchen with quartz counters, stainless steel appliances, and ample storage is perfect for a break area or staff kitchen, while the primary suite with private bath and covered porch access could easily serve as an owner's suite or executive office.
Upstairs, two spacious rooms with walk-in closets provide additional offices, treatment rooms, or creative studio spaces. An oversized bathroom with dual sinks and ample storage supports a comfortable work environment or multi-use business operation.
Beyond its existing charm and functionality, this property offers significant development upside. Though currently recognized as a single parcel, it was originally platted as three separate lots. With city approval, a future owner could subdivide the property — opening the door to multiple storefronts, small offices, or mixed-use residential/commercial development.
Perfectly positioned minutes from Downtown Sanford's vibrant dining, retail, brewery, and riverfront scene, this property offers exceptional visibility and accessibility for any business looking to capitalize on Sanford's ongoing growth and revitalization.
Whether you're seeking a turnkey live/work space, planning to repurpose for commercial use, or exploring future development opportunities, this property is a one-of-a-kind investment in one of Central Florida's most dynamic and fast-growing corridors.
