Description
Step into a rare investment opportunity steeped in history and community significance. This exceptional former general store, approximately 174 years old, stands as a true pillar of Centreville—offering timeless character paired with versatile commercial potential. The main level features a prominent retail space, dedicated office area, and a functional loading bay workshop with additional upper-level storage, making it ideal for a variety of business uses or creative ventures. A separate rear entrance leads to a well-maintained second-storey apartment complete with an eat-in kitchen, living room, 4-piece bath, in-unit laundry, and three spacious bedrooms. With a reliable tenant already in place, this unit provides steady rental income to help offset ownership costs. Additional inclusions further enhance the property’s value: all appliances are included, both levels are equipped with efficient heat pumps, and the building has been upgraded with new electrical.
