5,200 SF Auto Service For Sale — $5,300,000 — 401 SE 5th Ave, Delray Beach – #82937

Executive Summary
Investment Highlights:
?Rare industrial opportunity in the heart of Downtown Delray Beach — an area where industrial product is virtually nonexistent.
?Located within the CBD zoning district, allowing for a wide range of commercial, industrial, and mixed-use applications.
?Ideal for owner-users seeking a central, walkable location with close proximity to I-95 or investors looking to capitalize on Delray’s constrained industrial supply and surging demand.
?Corner lot with substantial frontage on two streets provides exceptional visibility and multiple points of ingress/egress.
?Low existing FAR of 0.24 on a half-acre parcel in the CBD presents meaningful redevelopment upside — current improvements represent only a fraction of what the land can support.
?Surrounded by transformative development: The Set, 3rd + 3rd Village, and numerous high-end projects within immediate walking distance.
?Two blocks from Atlantic Avenue — Delray Beach’s premier cultural, dining, and entertainment corridor.
Zoning: Central Business District (CBD)
The property is zoned CBD — Central Business District under the City of Delray Beach Land Development Regulations (LDR Section 4.4.13). This is the most permissive and flexible commercial zoning classification in the city, designed to preserve and protect the cultural and historic aspects of downtown Delray Beach while simultaneously promoting vitality and economic growth.
The CBD district is mapped to the Commercial Core designation on the Future Land Use Map and is comprised of four sub-districts. Based on the property’s location on SE 5th Avenue, it falls within or adjacent to the Central Core Sub-district and/or the Railroad Corridor Sub-district (buyer to verify with City of Delray Beach Development Services).
