Description

Marcus & Millichap is pleased to exclusively represent the ownership in the sale of Duke’s Car Wash (the Business) along with the real estate located at 103 Railroad Avenue, Westminster, Maryland (the Property). The 4,758-square-foot car wash sits on 0.80-acres in downtown Westminster and has served the community for more than 20 years. Constructed in 1988, the property features 2 automatic wash bays, 3 self-service bays, one detailing bay and 9 vacuum stations. The business benefits from an established customer base and a highly recognizable location within one of Carroll County’s primary commercial corridors. Located in the heart of downtown Westminster, the property is positioned within a mature commercial district surrounded by retailers, restaurants, offices, and residential neighborhoods. The Westminster retail market remains healthy with vacancy rates below 3% and continued rent growth, providing strong underlying real estate fundamentals. The property's Mixed-Use Infill (MUI) zoning allows for a variety of residential, office, retail, commercial, and civic uses while encouraging redevelopment projects, creating a compelling long-term value proposition beyond the existing operation. The Business delivers stable, growing cash flow with minimal management responsibility. Under largely hands-off ownership, gross receipts have grown steadily each year, from roughly $323,849 in FY 2022 to $395,789 in FY 2025—achieved with lean management and low operating expenses. This makes Duke's an ideal acquisition for an owner seeking a proven, cash-flowing asset that primarily runs itself. The business presents multiple opportunities for a new owner to increase revenue and enhance operations. Current management has never advertised, customer growth has been completely location driven and word of mouth. New management has the ability to expand membership offerings, implement revised pricing strategies and convert the existing detailing bay into an additional self-service bay
