SoCo Turn-Key Salon Opportunity
Rare Live/Work Space
Marketing description
Position your business in one of Austin’s fastest-evolving corridors at 4361 S Congress Ave #103. This 962 square foot, street-level, one-story live/work commercial space offers exceptional visibility, strong daily traffic, and a highly flexible layout ideal for a salon, studio, wellness concept, showroom, boutique, or creative office.
The space is currently built out and operating as a salon, making it a compelling turn-key opportunity for a similar user. The existing operator has invested significantly in permitting and improvements, and may be open to conveying select fixtures and equipment to a new occupant, creating the potential for a faster and more cost-effective launch. For non-salon users, the layout and infrastructure also translate well to a wide range of retail and service-based concepts.
The property features floor-to-ceiling storefront glass, a dedicated customer-facing entrance, a bright open interior, full kitchen, bathroom, and in-unit laundry. Two assigned, gated parking spaces convey with the property, an increasingly rare asset along South Congress.
Located in a dense and growing stretch of South Congress with strong surrounding residential and retail activity, the space benefits from proximity to St. Elmo, downtown Austin, and major employment centers.
Offered for sale or for lease, this is an ideal opportunity for an owner-user, operator, or investor seeking a high-visibility, adaptable space in one of Austin’s most active commercial corridors.
