Unique opportunity in the heart of downtown Grimes! This commercially zoned property is currently set up as a garage and used by the owner as a private “man cave,” but the potential goes far beyond its current use. Located on SE Main Street with great visibility and easy access, this space offers endless possibilities for a small business, studio, coffee shop, boutique retail, office, or creative workspace. Rare chance to own a flexible commercial property in a growing downtown area with strong community traffic and future upside.
