301 E Sample St 65,256 SF of Industrial Space Available in South Bend, IN 46601

DWG Capital Group, as exclusive leasing advisor, presents 301 E Sample Street, South Bend, Indiana, a ±65,256 SF freestanding industrial facility available for direct lease in the downtown South Bend industrial submarket. The facility is delivered vacant and offered for the first time in over twenty years. The asset is suited for single-tenant occupancy or partial demise across three functional production zones (approximately 20,000 SF minimum). Asking $6.25 PSF NNN with 3.0% annual escalations, the lease economics are positioned competitively within the South Bend industrial submarket, which is reporting 3.1% vacancy with limited functional inventory available at this size. Facility infrastructure includes 24' clear height throughout, 600A heavy power (120/208V & 120/240V, 3-phase, 4-wire, 65K AIC), 2 exterior dock-high doors plus 1 drive-in/grade-level door, centralized loading dock zone, 70 on-site parking spaces, dual street frontage on Sample Street and Tutt Street, NY Central rail-corridor adjacency, and a ±1.93 AC adjacent yard available for IOS, trailer parking, or build-to-suit expansion under separate negotiation. Substantial in-place industrial buildout reduces tenant fit-out cost and time-to-occupancy, including open-span pressroom and production zones, multi-bay bindery infrastructure, ink-mixing clean room (controlled environment), food-grade storage room precedent, racked warehouse with central loading dock, and substantial office, conference, training, and quality-control space. Ideal tenant uses include manufacturing, printing, packaging, food-adjacent processing, light tech, contractor service, distribution, 3PL, and owner-user occupancy. The facility historically supported multi-press industrial operations (8-color, 12-color, Gallus, Nilpeter, and flexographic web presses) and remains positioned for similar high-spec industrial reuse. South Bend sits at the intersection of I-80/90, I-94, and US-31, providing direct logistics access to Chicago (~97 mi), Toledo (~150 mi), Fort Wayne (~88 mi), Detroit, and the broader Great Lakes corridor. The asset is 2.5 miles from the University of Notre Dame within an established St. Joseph County industrial corridor anchored by long-tenured Indiana manufacturing and logistics operators.
