1178 Franklin Ave

Built in 1890 and a short walk from the heart of downtown Astoria, 1178 Franklin Avenue offers 1,814 square feet of genuinely flexible space across two floors — 877 square feet on the main level and 937 above. The building is laid out as a series of self-contained rooms with two kitchens and multiple bathrooms, which makes it unusually adaptable — a single owner-user can occupy the whole of it, or it can be run as separate offices or suites.

The property sits in Astoria's C-4 Central Commercial zone, among the most permissive in the city, supporting commercial, service, retail, office, restaurant, governmental and mixed-use occupancy. You can review the rules for yourself in the City of Astoria Development Code. Upstairs, rooms look out over the rooftops of downtown to the Columbia River and the Astoria-Megler Bridge. A covered porch runs across the front of the building, and a generous patio opens off the main floor.

Offered at $398,000, or $219.40 per square foot, and eligible for a 1031 exchange.
