The former Kucera Karate Center offers an unusually versatile opportunity on nearly five acres in Silverhill. The existing building provides almost 4,000 square feet of remarkably open interior space—creating possibilities ranging from a fitness or training center to a daycare, professional offices, studios, or other business concepts.
The property’s location less than one mile from Silverhill Elementary School could be especially convenient for a childcare, educational, or family-oriented business. Although the building currently has no central air conditioning, it was surprisingly cool inside at noon on a hot August day—a notable feature buyers will want to experience for themselves. The original builder continues to come highly recommended, and a new roof was installed following Hurricane Sally.
What makes this property particularly compelling is the opportunity beyond the existing building. After meeting with Baldwin County, the building portion was recommended for B-2 zoning, while the vacant rear acreage would remain R-2 residential. This could allow a buyer to pursue a commercial use at the front while exploring the possibility of building homes on the property behind it.
Much of the nearly five acres lies behind the building, creating room to envision more than one project. The land rises along the western side, with a dry-creek area running through the property, and its general topography is similar to the neighboring land to the south. A new survey has already been completed.
Whether envisioned as a business location, a residential development opportunity, or a combination of the two, this is a diverse property with space, flexibility, and considerable potential. Buyer to verify all information during due diligence.
