Overview
Description
1120 Dawson offers a rare opportunity to acquire a highly functional UMX-zoned commercial property on a fully fenced ±0.40-acre corner lot, with infrastructure and improvements that would be costly to replicate today. Designed for flexibility, this asset supports a wide range of commercial, service, light industrial, and mixed-use applications, making it ideal for owner-users or investors seeking strong utility, zoning freedom, and long-term upside.
The existing structure—originally constructed as a church and later converted—offers open interior volume, solid construction, and adaptability, making it well-suited for a brewery, contractor headquarters, service-industry operations, workshop, storage-based business, or creative industrial use.
Key infrastructure includes natural gas service (ideal for breweries and high-demand users), a 13' roll-up door, 200-amp electrical service, two full bathrooms, Goodman HVAC systems, and a 2021 water heater. The roof is approximately 5-6 years old, minimizing capital expenditure risk.
The corner-lot positioning enhances visibility and access, while the oversized fenced yard provides functionality for vehicle parking, equipment storage, outdoor operations, or future expansion/additional structures (subject to zoning and permitting).
This asset offers strong utility, flexible zoning, and redevelopment upside—making it suitable for long-term hold, owner occupancy, or repositioning in a market where properties with this level of infrastructure are increasingly difficult to replace.
