Description
Unique Downtown Barstow Opportunity – Just One Block from Historic Route 66! Located in the heart of downtown Barstow, just one block from iconic Route 66 / Main Street, this versatile property offers a rare blend of residential and commercial potential. Situated on a single parcel are two separate structures, making it ideal for investors, business owners, or multi-use living. The front structure is currently used as a business and was originally built as a small home featuring two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a basement. Once the business vacates, the space can be easily converted back into a residential unit. A street-level access ramp provides convenient and accessible entry from the sidewalk. The rear structure includes a 1-bedroom, 1-bath home with an attached studio-style apartment on the backside—perfect for extended family, rental income, or live-work flexibility. The property also features a private driveway leading to the rear unit and a drive-through gate accessible from the alley, offering excellent access and parking options. With its prime downtown location, proximity to Route 66, and multiple income or use possibilities, this property is a standout opportunity with endless potential.
