Property Description

Step into a piece of Toccoa's history with the iconic Acree-Mitchell Grocery Building, one of the most recognizable and historically significant landmarks in Downtown Toccoa. Believed to be the oldest commercial building in the downtown district, this remarkable structure was originally constructed circa 1875, when present-day Stephens County was still part of Habersham County. For more than 151 years, it has stood as a testament to the rich heritage and enduring character of the community. Constructed with hand-made brick and filled with timeless architectural details, the building showcases original hardwood floors, exposed brick walls, soaring beadboard ceilings, and the authentic charm that only a true historic property can offer. For the past four decades, it has been home to a beloved local art gallery, preserving both its legacy and its place at the heart of Downtown Toccoa. Offering approximately 3,500 square feet, the property provides exceptional flexibility for a variety of commercial uses. The main level features approximately 1,000 square feet of prime retail storefront with large display windows and excellent visibility, while the second floor offers an additional 1,000 square feet. The expansive rear portion of the building provides approximately 1,500 square feet of open space, creating endless possibilities for retail, office, restaurant, event space, studio, gallery, or mixed-use development. The building offers two convenient entrances, with the main entrance fronting Doyle Street and a secondary entrance from Tugalo Street, providing excellent accessibility and functionality. Its layout also presents the opportunity to subdivide the property into two separate commercial spaces, making it an attractive investment for owner-users or investors alike. Whether you're looking to establish a flagship business, create a one-of-a-kind destination, or invest in one of Northeast Georgia's most treasured historic properties, the Acree-Mitchell Grocery Building offers an extraordinary opportunity to own a true piece of Downtown Toccoa history while shaping its future.
