Pair of restaurant properties for sale on North Columbia

If you've been dreaming of opening a restaurant, and if you access to a lot of money and/or a really friendly bank, a pair of old restaurant properties currently is for sale on the North Columbia Street business corridor.

The "new Pizza Hut" property, located on the hill across the street from Arby's and AT&T, currently is listed for $585,000. Leasing also is an option at $4,500 per month. According to the listing, which can be viewed by CLICKING HERE, the property has been on the market for 68 days. The building most recently was home to the short-lived TRUE 92 restaurant.

The building was built in 2006, when Pizza Hut launched beside a combo A&W/Long John Silver's restaurant, which is now Hibachi Express.

Added the listing: "Property has 30 parking spaces, with high traffic volume and frontage on N Columbia Street (Highway 441). Can easily be rebranded as another restaurant. Has hood in place, and drive-thru window. Property is also for lease."

Meanwhile, the old Super China Buffet/Hibachi Buffet building also is on the market. Located in the strip mall next to Lowe's, the listing price is $950,000. The "total building size" is 7,000 square feet, added the listing, which is relatively substantial for a restaurant property. The property also "is available for lease."

Prior to being reconfigured into a strip mall, the property was home to the old Norhthside Elementary School. If you look hard enough, mainly at the breezeways in between the different buildings, you can still see different features and characteristics of typical 1960s and 1970s school buildings.
