Description

Yes, the building is a giant wheel of cheese and Yes, there is a life size mouse on the roof, greeting all locals and visitors alike. We are proud and excited to present this amazing opportunity to own one of Maines most recognizable and long standing retail buildings. For over 50 years, the Wine and Cheese shop has served Wells residents and the seacoast's travelers with the finest wines, imported cheeses from far away lands and assorted, fresh deli items. This property sits on approximately 1 acre +/- and features endless expansion and development opportunities. The retail shop opens up to an expansive barn with over 5,000 square feet of space to accommodate any business one could dream of creating. The barns second level surrounds the center in a 360° Fashion and looks over a railing to below. Ever dream of opening a brewery? A bar? A steakhouse? This is THE property for it. This property would be quite suitable for light manufacturing with distribution and retail as well. The rear of the property features a refrigerated room that is approximately 35'x50', multiple storage rooms, small retail or office in the front of the property and a large, two story apartment with separate access. This property could also be leased to multiple tenants, running different business to generate cash flow. With route one's astronomic traffic count, unmatched high-visibility, expansive route 1 frontage and ample parking, this property gives a new owner every possible ingredient needed for ultimate success. Property can be easily shown with 24 hour minimum notice. Accompanied showings by appointment only.
