Marketing description
Prime Lyell Ave Corner | Automotive/Service Property with Redevelopment Upside | 1803 Lyell Ave, Rochester, NY 14606
Rare corner opportunity on one of Rochester's highest-traffic commercial corridors. This .49-acre site at the corner of Lyell Ave and Alvanar Rd features an existing 1,350 SF auto service building (formerly Piehler's Service Station) with two bay doors, a customer reception area, and three curb cuts — two directly off Lyell Ave. The lot offers exceptional visibility and access in a dense, established commercial node surrounded by auto-related businesses, light industrial users, and service-oriented retail.
The property is well-suited for an owner/operator looking to continue automotive or service use, or for a developer/investor seeking a value-add redevelopment play on a high-exposure corner. The oversized lot relative to the building leaves significant land available for expansion, reconfiguration, or ground-up development. This is an as-is sale.
Investment highlights
- 3 curb cuts (2 on Lyell Ave) — excellent ingress/egress for automotive, drive-thru, or service users
- Oversized lot with significant excess land for expansion or redevelopment
- Surrounded by auto dealers, light industrial, and service commercial users
- High-visibility frontage on a major Rochester arterial
- .49-acre corner lot at Lyell Ave & Alvanar Rd with strong traffic counts
- Ideal for: auto service/repair, auto sales, drive-thru QSR, fleet/contractor yard, or ground-up commercial development
