Description:

Hybrid Investment | Operating Restaurant + Development Land | Four-Parcel US-27 Assemblage
Marketing description

Individual Parcel Sales Considered | All Reasonable Offers and Closing Terms Welcome

GoCommercial is pleased to present the exclusive offering of the Sebring Diner and four-parcel commercial assemblage at 4040 US Highway 27 South in Sebring, Florida. This rare hybrid opportunity combines a fully operational, high-volume diner business, owner-user restaurant real estate, and approximately 5.35 acres of strategically positioned commercial land along Sebring's dominant US-27 corridor.


OPERATING RESTAURANT | The anchor improvement is a purpose-built, 4,155 SF freestanding diner with over 27 years of proven operations at this location. Constructed in 1999 with steel frame / CBS construction, glass thermopane storefront, torch-down roofing, commercial quarry tile flooring, and packaged rooftop HVAC, the Sebring Diner reports annual revenues exceeding $1,000,000. The sale includes all FF&E necessary to operate the business on a turnkey basis: walk-in cooler/freezer, commercial range, convection ovens, triple deep fryers, flat top griddles, Hobart dishmachine, ice machines, POS registers, security system, outdoor patio seating, and a Watchfire full-color programmable pylon sign. The property may be structured as a going-concern business sale, a real estate asset sale, or a full assemblage redevelopment transaction. Drive-through conversion potential exists for buyers repositioning the concept, subject to applicable approvals.


FOUR-PARCEL ASSEMBLAGE | The offering consists of four contiguous parcels under unified ownership totaling ±5.35 acres. Parcel 1 (4040 US 27 S) is the operating restaurant on ±1.14 acres with 223 LF of US-27 frontage, zoned C1 (City of Sebring). Parcel 2 (1009 Van Villa Ave) is an adjoining ±0.46-acre paved parking parcel with ~10,180 SF of asphalt, zoned B3 (Highlands County), operationally integrated with the restaurant. Parcel 3 (4070 US 27 S) is a vacant ±0.35-acre pad site with 77 LF of US-27 frontage, zoned C1 (City of Sebring) and Parcel 4 (1004 Van Villa Ave) is a ±3.52-acre rear development tract zoned B3 and AU (Highlands County), ready for QSR, car wash, self storage, bank, medical clinic, hotel, multifamily residential building, or neighborhood retail, presenting significant redevelopment and rezoning upside.


DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL | The surplus acreage supports multiple development pathways including outparcel/pad site creation, multi-tenant strip center, QSR or drive-through development, medical/professional office, or phased mixed-use commercial redevelopment. The B3-zoned portion is immediately commercially usable; the AU acreage is a strong rezoning candidate given its location within an established commercial corridor contiguous with C1 and B3 properties.

OPPORTUNITY ZONE | Located in a federally designated Opportunity Zone, offering significant tax advantages available to investors holding real estate long-term, including capital gains deferral and potential tax-free appreciation

LOCATION | US-27 is Highlands County's primary commercial spine, carrying 33,000–45,000 vehicles per day and connecting Central to Southwest Florida. The property sits within one of Sebring's most active commercial nodes, with strong highway visibility, easy ingress/egress, proximity to established residential neighborhoods, and demand supported by Sebring International Raceway (50,000+ annual visitors). Sebring continues to benefit from Florida's sustained population in-migration, with Highlands County's retirement-oriented demographic generating consistent, repeat-visit dining demand.


INVESTMENT STRATEGIES | Owner-operator acquisition with stabilized $1M+ revenue base from extremely limited operating hours and without any liquor sales. Hybrid hold-and-develop while entitling surplus acreage. Redevelopment or franchise repositioning on a 5.35-acre US-27 footprint. 1031 exchange into immediate cash flow with land upside.

Ownership will sell any parcel and/or restaurant business individually.

Brokers Protected.

All reasonable terms and offers considered.
