IMPROVEMENTS & DESCRIPTION:
Two historic buildings situated at the busiest intersection in San Saba County offer unlimited business potential. The Dofflemyer Building on the corner was built around 1913 and housed the San Saba National Bank until the late 1980’s. Two antique bank vaults are still intact. The ground floor of the Dofflemyer building has approximately 3,000 square feet of floor space which includes 2 separate office/retail spaces, each with private restrooms and exterior doors for street access. (Two of the spaces are currently leased for a retail business.) The balance of the ground floor space was utilized by the old bank. The second floor is accessed from the street by a private door and stairway and also has approximately 3,000 square feet of floor space. The upstairs office spaces were converted a number of years ago into a 3 bedroom 1 bathroom apartment with kitchen and utility rooms. The beautiful pressed tin ceiling is still visible in the spacious great room.
The Campbell-Hagan Building was built in 1910 for a retail business. At some point, the bank next door annexed this building by cutting openings through the 18” rock party wall. The extension added an additional 3,000 square feet of ground floor space. The stairs to the second floor of this building were removed to accommodate a drive-thru window for the bank, a third bank vault was built as well as separate men and women’s restrooms and a kitchen/break room.
The second floor of this building could be reclaimed to add additional floor space.
Both of these buildings are solidly constructed of brick and stone and materials no longer available – such as the massive timbers used for floor joists. Although the floor space has been divided into various offices and work spaces, it is possible that the interior divider walls are non-load bearing and could be removed to open up a huge retail space. There are 3 central heat/air conditioning systems in place. Architectural novelties that have been covered with “improvements” through the years are unknown but waiting to be discovered.
Priced at less than $38/sq.ft. for floor space, this 2-building package at the most visible location in San Saba is a great commercial property buy for someone interested in owning a piece of history in a vibrant Texas Hill Country town as well as a prime business location. Dust off your imagination and become a part of the renaissance San Saba is currently experiencing!
A third building adjacent to these buildings is also available for $80,000. The third building, built about 1926 by Nora Walker as a ladies apparel shop (The Norette Shoppe) has just received a total make-over: new ceiling, floor covering, paint, windows, restroom facility, central heat/air conditioning system, and roof repair. This building has approximately 1800 square feet of floor space and is currently leased as a retail furniture store.
