Manton Bowling, Retail, Event Center & Apartment Opportunity
Historic Downtown Manton Mixed-Use Redevelopment Opportunity - Business and furnishings included
Marketing description
Located in the heart of downtown Manton along historic West Main Street, this unique commercial property spans three city lots and includes two interconnected buildings currently operating as Blue Pin Alley, with an upper level residential unit. With over 8,000 square feet, the property has served as a long-standing community gathering place, with roots dating back to the early 1900s and uses ranging from a bowling alley and theater to retail and service businesses.
The layout features multiple levels, including a large open main floor, a lower level with expansive space previously used for bowling lanes, and an upper level with an existing apartment and additional unfinished area. The configuration offers flexibility for a variety of future concepts, with the potential to incorporate commercial, entertainment, or residential components.
This property is being marketed as a redevelopment opportunity and is not priced based on current income. Potential uses may include a brewery or taproom, food hall, event venue, entertainment space, boutique retail, boutique hospitality, short-term or long-term rental, or other mixed-use redevelopment — subject to buyer verification of permitted use with the Village of Manton and applicable local approvals.
The residential upside is real and already in motion. The larger three-level building anchors the opportunity: an existing upper-level apartment is already in place, with shell space suitable for one additional large unit or conversion to three smaller units. The open main level offers over 2,600 sq ft of possibilities; the lower level matches that with another 2,600+ sq ft of future potential for residential, office, retail, and more — subject to your vision and local approvals. The second building brings another 4,000+ sq ft of open space, currently configured as the bowling alley.
Live-in investor, multi-unit conversion, mixed-use with residential above — the configuration supports multiple strategies. Prominent Main Street visibility, three lots, two buildings, and an address that Manton already knows by name. NOTE: Cap rate cannot be calculated based on only partial use of building(s) and existing business.
