720-724 Main St. Highway

Description

Opportunity to own two commercial buildings on three commercial lots in Calvert's Historic 8-Block Business District located on the National Registry. The pair of late 1800s buildings on Main Street/State Highway 6, include a Mesker storefront with a distinguishing facade of ornamental pressed metal sheet panels. Between the Mesker building (approx. 1625 sf) and the 724 Main building (1875 sf) stands a vacant commercial lot with potential to create a pocket park or extended outdoor retail or restaurant space from the buildings. Interior features include exposed bricks and wood beams. In addition, the property boasts a large back outdoor area with large shade trees with access from the alley way. The two buildings and lot have 75 feet of highway frontage, 3,500 total sf on .258 acres. Updates include new electrical wiring in both buildings and two separate restrooms at the rear of the Mesker bldg. The 700 block on Main is thriving with the opening of a new restaurant in April 2024, vintage/resell shops, antiques, retail store with home decor, boutique and bookstore, a Texas Bucket List coffee shop and large special event venue/meeting space. Located approximately halfway between College Station/Texas A&M University and Waco/Baylor University, this property is conveniently located in one of the state's largest historic districts on the National Registry. The buildings offer an investment opportunity with the potential for retail, office, hospitality or brewery/biergarten.
