1096 S POTOMAC ST HAGERSTOWN MD 21740-7321
Nail Salon, Beauty, Spa, and Mixed-Use Investment Opportunity
Marketing description
1096 S Potomac Street presents a compelling opportunity for a nail salon, beauty salon, spa, barber/beauty concept, or other personal services business in a highly visible South Potomac Street location. Positioned across from South Hagerstown High School, the property offers a flexible mixed-use configuration that is well suited for an owner-user, investor, or entrepreneur seeking to establish a service-oriented business while benefiting from additional commercial, residential, warehouse, and garage components. Prior MLS marketing materials specifically identified barber/beauty and spa among the property’s potential uses, supporting its positioning as a strong candidate for a beauty and wellness-oriented concept, subject to zoning, permitting, and buyer verification.
The property is being presented as a multi-component asset consisting of two commercial spaces, one single-family home, one warehouse, and three garages, creating a rare blend of operational versatility and income-generating potential. The commercial spaces may be well positioned for a nail salon, beauty studio, personal care business, professional office, boutique retail, or related service use. The warehouse and garage areas provide added flexibility for storage, equipment, inventory, contractor use, or back-of-house business support, while the residential component may offer supplemental rental income or other strategic value depending on a purchaser’s business plan and approvals.
Prior listing materials for 1096 S Potomac Street reported approximately 4,462 square feet of building area on approximately 0.42 acres / 18,489 square feet of land, with commercial zoning, rear alley access, fencing, on-site parking, and a location outside Hagerstown city limits. The same materials noted a combination of storefront or office area, plant or warehouse area, garage improvements, and vacant lot space, underscoring the site’s adaptability for repositioning or continued mixed-use functionality.
The property’s infrastructure may further enhance its appeal for commercial users. Prior MLS information referenced public water, public sewer, natural gas, cable internet service, and electric service described as 200+ amp, 220 volts, and three-phase, although all utility capabilities should be independently verified by prospective purchasers. Rear alley access and the presence of garage and warehouse areas create added convenience for deliveries, storage, service operations, and business expansion potential.
From a location standpoint, 1096 S Potomac Street benefits from a recognizable corridor presence in Washington County and sits across from South Hagerstown High School, according to the prior MLS directions. Transportation references in the prior listing included proximity to a bus stop within one mile and an airport within ten miles, further contributing to the site’s accessibility.
Public land records identify the property as 1096 South Potomac Street, Hagerstown, Maryland 21740, Tax ID 10-011000, conveyed in 2024 to 17428 Gay Street LLC.
