Anyone needing a well maintained flexible use building at a small fraction of new construction should take a look at this property located at 405 Main in Otis, KS.

Built in 1974 this metal building was constructed for use as a John Deere dealership. This building has a front area setup for display along with four sales offices in addition to a business office. All of this area has paneled or painted walls throughout, with an 8 foot drop ceiling. The parts bins in the parts department, have been sold which opens this area up from floor to roof. The parts counter will stay in place. This front area has several additional rooms that are separated by concrete block walls. This will allow for separate functions to be preformed without affecting the rest of the front area.

The rear portion of the main building was designed for the repair of large farm equipment. Access to this area is through nine large overhead doors plus several walk-in doors in several locations. This shop area is equipped with two overhead cranes that are on overhead tracks that run the full length of the shop. An engine exhaust system was built in the ceiling at the time the building was built. One of the bays has a floor hoist that will provide undercarriage access for vehicles. This area is heated with overhead heaters as well as a reclaimed oil furnace. Floor drains are available in certain parts of this rear area.

Much of the exterior is concrete which provides for a clean entry for the equipment into the shop area. The concrete is in excellent condition and also provides good drainage of water away from the building.

Located to the southeast of the main building is a 60 x 125 metal warehouse with two large overhead doors in one end and two large sliding doors on the other end. This warehouse is designed for raw storage and can also be accessed by a 6 foot wide walk-in door. This building is lighted but not heated or cooled. In the general area of the warehouse is a loading dock used to load and unload heavy equipment.

The uses for this property are unlimited as it could continue as an implement dealership. It would work well for light manufacturing. Also a trucking company could utilize the main building for truck repair as well as providing office space for administrative offices. There is plenty of space for future growth or the storage of inventory with the 13.5 acres that these two buildings set on.
