Description
The property is zoned C-2 and includes a grandfathered natural gas–heated downdraft paint booth, a highly scarce entitlement in Northern California where new paint booth approvals are extremely limited. The facility is fully equipped for production-quality body and paint work, including prep areas, paint mixing systems (water-based and solvent), roll-up doors, 3-phase power, LED lighting, and on-site storage.
The site benefits from strong visibility, vehicle flow, and proximity to residential neighborhoods and public transit, including walking distance to BART and Amtrak. Initial city discussions indicate potential long-term redevelopment or mixed-use upside (buyer to verify).
Sale includes FF&E and inventory used in the current auto body operation. Business may be continued as-is or repositioned for insurance, customer-pay, or specialty paint work.
Seller is stepping back from ownership but is available for a 2–3 month transition period.
Ideal for owner-operators, established body shop groups, or investors seeking hard-to-replace auto body real estate with cash flow.
