6496 Georgia 85
Owner User | Redevelopment Opportunity on a High-Traffic Corridor
Marketing description
6496 GA-85, Riverdale, GA 30274 presents an exceptional owner-user, investment, and redevelopment opportunity strategically positioned along a heavily trafficked commercial corridor in Riverdale, Georgia, within Clayton County's Riverdale/Jonesboro submarket. The offering comprises a 1186-square-foot freestanding building, originally constructed in 1959 and currently built out as restaurant space, situated on a 2.54-acre parcel zoned General Business (GB) with 186 feet of frontage along GA-85 Highway. The property will be delivered vacant, allowing an incoming owner-user to occupy and operate the space directly, an investor to lease it out for income, or a developer to reposition the site to its full potential.
The site is well configured for the demands of a high-visibility commercial corridor, offering 30 surface parking spaces, a low parking-to-building ratio, and strong roadway exposure enhanced by pylon signage. Access and traffic flow are supported by a signalized intersection and a dedicated turn lane, while nearby bus service adds a complementary transit connection. The improvements are air-conditioned and positioned to accommodate a car-oriented customer base.
With a building floor area ratio of just 0.01, the parcel is significantly underutilized relative to its footprint, positioning the asset as a compelling candidate for redevelopment or expansion under its flexible GB zoning. The location further benefits from its proximity to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport the world's busiest airport situated approximately 12 minutes from the site, reinforcing the corridor's long-term commercial demand drivers.
Whether acquired as a turnkey owner-user restaurant location, a value-add investment, or repositioned for a larger ground-up development, 6496 GA-85 offers owner-users, investors, and developers a rare combination of exceptional visibility, functional restaurant improvements, and substantial land value along an established Metro Atlanta thoroughfare.
