82 S Main St 8,589 SF Retail Building Concord, NH 03301 For Sale

Situated at the southern gateway to Concord’s vibrant Main Street corridor, this historic property represents one of the city’s most recognizable and compelling redevelopment opportunities. Originally constructed in 1850 as the home of the Concord Coach Company—the stagecoaches that carried Concord's name across the country—the site has maintained continuous occupancy for more than 160 years. Most recently, it was operated as a processing plant by Cleary Cleaners.
The offering comprises two contiguous parcels totaling approximately 0.21 acres, improved with an 8,580± SF two-story building and an additional 3,000± SF unfinished attic space. While the structure is considered sound, the property requires rehabilitation. Utilities have been disconnected, and extensive environmental remediation has been completed under the supervision of the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (NHDES). The sellers are currently in the final post-remediation monitoring phase. The site is well-positioned for participation in New Hampshire’s Brownfields Covenant Program, which may provide liability protection and support redevelopment financing. The NH Brownfields Program allows a buyer to redevelop a property with known or suspected environmental issues under state oversight, providing liability protection for past contamination once remediation requirements are satisfied.
Ideally located just off I-93 at Exit 13, the property benefits from excellent visibility, full access, and flexible Urban Commercial zoning. Permitted uses include retail, restaurant, hospitality, multifamily, and office, among others. The rare combination of historic significance, downtown proximity, and meaningful value-add potential makes this a highly attractive opportunity for developers and investors seeking a transformative Main Street project.
