219 Main Street | Chadron, Nebraska
Located in the heart of historic downtown Chadron, this charming three-unit commercial building offers an outstanding opportunity for investors or owner-operators looking to be part of one of western Nebraska's most vibrant small-town communities. With two of the three main-level units currently leased to long-standing local businesses and the third available for a new tenant, this property combines immediate rental income with future development potential.
Property Overview
This impressive Main Street property has seen extensive updates and modernization while still maintaining its original downtown character. The building features three distinct commercial units, providing flexibility for retail, office, or service businesses.
Unit 1: Occupied by Bloom, a popular flower and gift shop known for its creative displays, special-occasion arrangements, and loyal customer base.
Unit 2: Leased to The Cut Hut on Main, a busy full-service salon with established clientele.
Unit 3: The north-end storefront is currently vacant and available for lease, providing additional income potential for the next owner or the opportunity for an owner-occupied business space.
The main level has seen major remodeling in 2020, creating an updated, functional, and visually appealing space for tenants. The upper level offers even more upside potential, with room to develop two residential apartments—ideal for downtown living or short-term rentals. While these units would require renovation, the upstairs windows were replaced approximately eight years ago, providing a head start on restoration.
In summer 2023, two brand-new HVAC systems and rooftop A/C units were installed, ensuring energy efficiency and comfort throughout the year.
The property sits on a 50' x 100' lot and features a total of approximately 7,750 sq. ft. of finished and basement space (per Dawes County records), offering flexibility for storage, retail, or future improvements.
