Historic building, reputable uptown business, and a large parking lot! At almost 9000 square feet with a 0.567 acre lot, this versatile property is waiting for a new purpose, or for a new owner to continue the existing pawn shop business that is already there. Built in 1899, Butte's Fire Station #2 housed the assistant fire chief and a 10-man crew from 1899 to 1931, serving Butte's warehouse district. From 1931 to 1987, the property was operated as a VFW Hall/Bar for the Auxiliary of the Veterans of Foreign Wars in Butte, holding many events for veterans as well as American Legion boxing events in the basement. In 1991, the former dance hall and bar was converted to a pawn shop, which the current owners have operated since 2000. All pawn shop inventory is available. The business buys, pawns, and sells items of all kinds. Guns, gold, electronics, and items ranging from cheap to expensive & rare are sold at this local Uptown business. Very close proximity to Butte High School, downtown Butte, and a large housing complex. Upstairs features a floating dance floor, an original bar from the VFW, and a kitchen/concessions room. Additionally to the 1899 building and parking lot, this property is also being sold with 207 Curtis, a small home on the side of the parking lot. Built in 1920, 207 Curtis is one of the few surviving Cabbage Patch shacks from the notorious Cabbage Patch slums of Butte; which were mostly demolished in 1940. This property has a long running history in Butte since 1899. It can be purchased along with the pawn shop business, or can be purchased to create in new business in a great location!
