Located in the Cuzco area of Dubois County, Indiana, this +/-2,200-square-foot building, formerly a restaurant and later the Cuzco Auction House, offers a versatile space with utilities and infrastructure already in place. Whether the plan is a small business, a community gathering space, or a residential renovation, this property provides a solid starting point in a convenient location in southern Indiana. The building has seen several updates in recent years. A metal roof and gutters were installed approximately 5 years ago, and the interior features updated paint, electrical, and plumbing. Batt insulation is in place above the ceiling. Electrical service is supplied through two 200-amp panels, providing capacity for a range of commercial or residential uses. Inside, the layout includes three bathrooms, a full kitchen, and an office/business area with a counter. The building features beautiful wood trim. The industrial kitchen is equipped with a floor drain, a large kitchen sink, and a utility room with a drain, providing practical functionality for food service, events, or cleanup. A small deep freezer is included with the sale, and the stainless kitchen tables can be included at the buyer's request. Heating is provided by propane, and the building has two HVAC units, approximately 16 years old (2010). Utilities include electric through Dubois REMC, water through Dubois Water, and fiber optic internet through Orange County Fiber. The property has a permitted septic system, approximately 16 years old per the seller's estimate, located behind the building on the northeast side. A concrete lid on the south side of the building covers an old well, which is inoperable to the seller's knowledge. A carport is also included. The property sits within minutes of the northwest side of Patoka Lake, the second largest reservoir in Indiana, known for boating, fishing, camping, public hunting land, and hiking. The resort town of French Lick and the city of Jasper are both a short drive away, offering dining, shopping, a casino, and services, while the Patoka Lake area draws steady visitor traffic year-round. Move-in-ready commercial space, a gathering venue, or a building with the bones for a residential conversion near Patoka Lake, this Dubois County property is worth a closer look. Please note that the following items are not included in the sale: the Coke machine in the kitchen, the sound system, the speakers, and the pictured chairs.
