And based on a bank appraisals INCOME APPROACH its very similar at 500K. AS FOR THE EXTRA ACREAGE - even harder to find since SO FEW like places left along Commercial / State Rd 2 let alone w/entry access. The LOT ONLY portion of this package has 148'F/ 339'D VS O'Reilly's Auto Parts across the street having 258'F / 300' D and1.77 Acres that SOLD 2015 for 260K. A great comp since nothing like it LOCATION specific but there are a couple of the next most recent that incl Dunkin' Donuts w/tiny frontage of 100' / 222' for .51 Acre & SOLD for 250K in 2021 and then Taco Bell's Lot 158' / 175' .63 Acre SOLD for 300K in 2023 - JUST Sampling the 3 its clear the lots are selling for FAR more but for FAR less SF and simply taking the avg frontage at 1,569 plf the xtra lot easily falls in the 232,000+ realm - and that's before factoring the access f/Commercial AND The West side parking lot of the current building. LOADS of expansion options, strip malls + stand alones. So VERY conservatively speaking a 712,000 value is substantiated - DISCOUNTED package 650K - lease thru 5/31/27 [Original lease 6/1/2016 and renewable every 3 years] ....The .96Acre Lot by itself 200K is ideal for 2-3 4units residential like surrounding parcels. Building only 500K
