Located just off the Burnsville Town Square, directly across from the Visitors Center, and surrounded by thriving local businesses, 109 West Main Street offers an exceptional opportunity to step into one of downtown’s most desirable locations. And the best part? You can open the doors the day you get the keys! This is truly the definition of a turnkey property. The property is being offered furnished with the beautifully designed, like-new furnishings that have helped create its distinctive atmosphere, along with an extensive collection of restaurant essentials including plates, glassware, cups, flatware and more. The thoughtful interior design, established layout and substantial commercial equipment mean you aren't starting from scratch—you are stepping into a business-ready space with the infrastructure already in place. One of the greatest additions added in the past couple of years was the well thought out prep-kitchen located on the lower level - essentially expanding your kitchen space for your team. An equipment list is attached. But perhaps the most valuable part of 109 West Main Street can't be measured by an equipment list. It's the location. It's the reputation. It's the design. It's the history. And it's the opportunity. Whether you envision starting your own legacy, creating an entirely new dining concept, opening a destination retail experience, or bringing another business idea to life, this property gives you something difficult to recreate: a prime downtown location with character, infrastructure and a story already woven into the fabric of Burnsville.
