80 Townline Road, Carleton Place, ON

Description

A rare retail auto garage and redevelopment opportunity in the heart of Carleton Place. Situated on a large 0.485-acre lot in a high-traffic urban corridor, this highly visible property offers exceptional direct street exposure, strong vehicle traffic counts, excellent accessibility, and ample on-site parking - a rare auto garage opportunity outside of a traditional business park setting. The existing 2,108 sq. ft. building includes shop space, office areas, dry storage, and additional second-level crawl space storage above the offices. The property is currently vacant and was formerly operated as an automotive garage and service facility, with one hoist remaining in place. The former automotive use continues as a legal non-conforming use under the current zoning, creating an excellent opportunity for automotive repair, detailing, tire sales, or other automotive-related concepts seeking strong drive-by exposure and customer accessibility. The office area is functional in its current configuration; however, a future owner may also have the option to reconfigure this space to create a second drive-in garage bay with the addition of a new front bay door, further enhancing operational flexibility. Front and rear bay doors already provide convenient drive-through capability for vehicles and equipment. Numerous improvements have been completed under current ownership, and vacant possession allows immediate occupancy, repositioning, or redevelopment planning. Importantly, the property is located within the Mississippi Residential Sector zoning designation, which supports future low-rise residential redevelopment potential (subject to municipal approvals), making this an attractive long-term intensification and land banking opportunity in one of Eastern Ontario's fastest-growing communities. Ideal for owner-users or investors seeking a high-exposure automotive property with future redevelopment upside.
