2001 S Empire Avenue

Big opportunity on one of Joplin's most heavily traveled corridors. This single-story building sits right on 20th Street (S Empire Ave) with excellent exposure and a strong traffic count -- and with its zoning and layout, it's a rare candidate for adaptive reuse into multi-family housing. the footprint lends itself to conversion into a large duplex, tri-plex, or four-plex for an investor looking to create rental income in the Joplin market.Picture the possibilities. The building already offers three exterior entrances -- a natural head start toward separate unit access for a multi-unit layout. Inside, it's currently configured with eight private offices, a reception window, a small lobby, a large open room approximately 48' x 21', and two half baths -- good bones and existing partition walls that give a converter real material to work with, whether you're framing out two spacious units or three-to-four efficient ones. The large open room could anchor a generous primary unit or be divided to add doors.Systems are in place to build on: a membrane roof and HVAC system installed approximately 2011, roughly 1,000 sq ft of rear parking plus ample street parking -- a genuine asset when you're planning tenant parking for multiple units.And the flexibility cuts both ways. If residential conversion isn't your plan, the same space still works beautifully for its current commercial life: professional offices, insurance or administrative use, creative or collaborative workspace, climate-controlled storage, or multi-tenant commercial lease-up. Prime visibility, versatile configuration, and multi-family conversion potential make this a standout for investors and owner-users alike on one of Joplin's key corridors.Buyer to verify zoning, permitted uses, and any conversion requirements with the City of Joplin.
