314 SOUTH MAIN
  

Second Floor

Second Floor (top floor) is a striking 1888 sq. ft residence, with 10 ft ceilings. The original wood floors have been restored to a beautiful finish. The impressive front room (600 sq.ft) has three windows overlooking South Main Street. There is a big, quiet bedroom (350 sq.ft) with built-in closets, next to a master bath. There is a large kitchen with stainless appliances, including a gas range, next to a separate laundry area & half-bath. Windows in this area look east toward the FedEx Forum and Beale Street. A dramatic hallway runs the length of the floor, enabling natural light from the E & W windows to flood the entire residence. There are ceiling fans, transom windows, period fixtures, and beautiful solid wood doors throughout. Central air/heat is provided by a 6.25-ton unit on roof. There is an automatic attic fan to provide additional cooling in summer. Smoke detectors are hard-wired. 

First Floor

The first floor (street level) is perfect for commercial space, as the pedestrian traffic on South Main is heavy and increasing each month. Two large picture windows open onto Main Street. This floor is partially renovated, and ready for final build-out/ improvements. Two working ADA-compliant bathrooms have been framed and are operational. The original pine floors have been sanded once but with a little more attention, can be stunning. HVAC and electrical upgrades will be needed to complete the first floor. Ceilings are 14 feet.

Basement

The basement is suitable for storage and for siting mechanical services/equipment. Water, electrical, gas, and sprinkler main services enter the building here through the west wall in the basement. The ceiling in the basement is about 9 feet. There is a gas furnace (needs servicing) to heat this area. Walls are painted exposed brick. There are stairs to the first floor, and exit stairs to the outside (to parking lot in the rear).

 Other

The entire property lot size is 23 x 175. The parking area in the rear is approx. 2000 sq. feet (23 x 85), with access from Mulberry Street, and has some landscaping. All levels of the building are sprinklered. A formal mechanical/engineering study has been prepared by Thompson Engineers, PEs, Inc. (Note, there is 3-phase electrical service into the  property.) Also, formal architectural drawings for possible renovations have been completed by a licensed local architect, and are available to serious buyers. A new roof was completed in 2006.
