2729 Cleveland Avenue NW, Canton, OH 44709

Description

This highly visible Canton property offers a prime Redevelopment Opportunity with tremendous potential. Part of the Johns Center Building, operated for many years as a popular local restaurant and gathering place, is now vacant and ready for its next chapter. The main restaurant space features a two large kitchen areas, an expanded bar and several dining areas, and a recently added outdoor patio complete with a glass garage door and fenced seating area—an attractive feature for future hospitality or entertainment uses. Most kitchen equipment has been removed, allowing a new owner to design the space to fit their concept. The property also includes multiple retail spaces, two of which are currently occupied: a long-established billiards business and a barber shop, providing some existing tenancy, income and activity on the property. Additional space includes older second-floor office areas currently not in use and two occupied apartments on the upper level that are functional but in need of updating. Situated in a convenient Canton location near major highways, restaurants, and other commercial businesses, the site offers excellent accessibility and visibility. One of the property’s strongest features is the expansive parking lot with over 100 parking spaces, a rare amenity that supports a wide range of commercial uses. While the building does require updates and general improvements, this property represents a blank slate with significant redevelopment potential for restaurant, retail, entertainment, mixed-use, or other commercial concepts. Adding further potential, three adjacent single-family homes—currently rented—are also available for purchase separately, providing over an additional half acre of land that could expand redevelopment opportunities or future site assembly. With its prime location, generous parking, and flexible layout, the opportunity at this price point is one investors and entrepreneurs will want to explore!
