This offering presents a standalone auto body business with real estate, operating from its own dedicated facility of approximately 4,000–5,000 SF within a well-established East Bay automotive corridor. The property is zoned C-2 and benefits from long-standing automotive entitlements that are increasingly difficult to replicate.
A key differentiator is the presence of a grandfathered, natural gas–heated downdraft spray booth, a rare and valuable asset in Northern California where new paint booth approvals are highly restricted. The facility is fully outfitted for production-quality body and paint work and includes prep and sanding areas, paint mixing systems (water-based and solvent), roll-up doors, 3-phase power, LED lighting, and on-site storage.
The location offers excellent visibility and access, with proximity to residential neighborhoods and strong public transit connectivity, including an approximately 8-minute walk to BART, nearby bus routes, and close access to Amtrak and ferry service. Preliminary discussions with the city suggest potential long-term mixed-use or residential redevelopment upside (buyer to verify).
The sale includes the operating auto body business, equipment, and inventory, which may be continued, expanded, or repositioned. Seller is open to providing post-sale transition support to ensure continuity.
This opportunity is well suited for owner-operators, established body shop groups seeking Bay Area expansion, or investors focused on acquiring scarce auto body real estate with in-place cash flow.
