The most recent use was orthodontic and general office, but with C-1 zoning this building would be suitable for many allowed uses, including restaurant and retail. The building is brick with stucco accents, and sits on a corner lot midway between Main Street and Town Park, with two large display windows facing West Washington and three double windows facing First Street. The building has access from both streets, and is currently divided into a 2400sf space facing West Washington (orthodontic office) and 1300sf space facing First Street (general office), with zoned HVAC and security systems, plus separate utility meters for each. Local zoning would allow for conversion to a live/work space. The building is in excellent condition – the exterior brick was pointed and painted in 2008, and three new 13 SEER ac units were installed in 2010. The asphalt roof was replaced in 2008, with gutters and metal flashing rebuilt. The exterior of the building is subject to Historic District Overlay regulations.
