Description
1441 Bush Street is a 3,712-square-foot automotive/industrial facility located in the heart of San Francisco’s Lower Nob Hill neighborhood. The property is improved with a fully operational auto repair shop and is occupied on a month-to-month basis at $5,500 per month plus utilities, offering immediate in-place income with flexibility for an owner-user or future repositioning. Located within the RC-4 (Residential–Commercial, High Density) zoning district, the property benefits from a rare combination of commercial functionality and long-term redevelopment potential, allowing a wide range of uses in one of San Francisco’s most centrally connected neighborhoods. 1441 Bush Street is ideally suited for an owner-user seeking a centrally located facility—including automotive, service-oriented, light industrial, or specialty trades operators—given the hard-to-find building size, private drive-in access, and proximity to major corridors and dense customer bases. The short-term tenancy allows a buyer to secure a prime location while maintaining the option to occupy immediately or reconfigure the space to meet operational needs. For users evaluating occupancy costs, SBA financing can offer a compelling alternative to leasing, with monthly ownership expenses often comparable to or below market rents for similar San Francisco industrial or automotive facilities. This makes 1441 Bush Street an exceptional opportunity to establish long-term control in a supply-constrained market. Investment Highlights: • Prime Location: the property benefits from strong visibility, easy access, and proximity to surrounding dense residential base and commercial corridors. • Flexible Zoning (RC-4): High-density zoning supports a wide range of future uses, including mixed-use or residential redevelopment, adding long-term value beyond current operations. • Owner-User Appeal: The size and configuration are well-suited for an owner-user seeking a central San Francisco location. • Short-Term Income: T
