Property Description

Built originally in 1915 with craftsmanship that modern construction rarely matches, this turn-key cafe and coffee shop commands one of McCaysville's most enviable positions - directly across from the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway Depot. Every trainload of visitors funnels past your front door, delivering foot traffic most restaurant owners can only fantasize about. Two elegant dining rooms anchored by decorative fireplaces create an atmosphere that keeps guests lingering over their meals. But the real showstopper? Generous green space and outdoor seating that no other downtown restaurant can rival. A covered porch extends your dining capacity rain or shine, while a private patio and backyard offer intimate gathering space unlike anything else on the block. Upstairs, a newly renovated 900-plus square foot area opens up exciting possibilities. Transform it into living quarters above your business, craft an atmospheric bar, or expand seating to capture even more revenue during peak season. The flexibility here is extraordinary. Sitting on two full city lots, parking headaches vanish entirely - guests find spots effortlessly, and two dedicated spaces remain reserved for ownership use. Revenue flows from multiple streams, too. A secondary building on the property operates under a long-term lease, generating rental income from day one alongside your established cafe operation. This well-established business requires zero downtime. Keys in hand, income starts immediately. Opportunities like this in a thriving mountain tourist corridor surface once in a generation.
