PLAINS TWP. – If the building at 350 Second St. was a house the ad copy might read, “move-in condition.” That’s because the carpets are pristine and the paint is fresh.

“The inside is really nice for an industrial building,” said listing agent Mike Detter of Hinerfeld Commercial Real Estate.

The simple exterior doesn’t provide much of a clue to what’s inside, so maybe the ad would also say, “not a drive by.”

The 5,000 square feet of office space is part of a larger building in which another tenant is occupying the warehouse area that is hidden from the street. While not on a main thoroughfare, the building is convenient to the Cross-Valley Expressway and Interstate 81.

“It’s ideal for a user that doesn’t need visibility,” Detter said. “You can get really great office space at a reasonable rate.”

Modern features, such as complete prewiring with cat-5 cabling, also make the offices attractive. There’s a dedicated computer/telecom room with auxiliary cooling and a large conference room with an electronically-controlled retractable screen.

In addition to those rooms there are seven private offices with windows, a large glass-walled entrance/reception area, a break room and storage rooms. The core of the space is an open area with multiple electrical and network outlets that could accommodate support staff.

Other amenities include recessed fluorescent lighting, two handicap-accessible bathrooms, a full coverage sprinkler system and gas heating with individual thermostats in each office. There’s even an available flag pole.

The exterior, while plain, is in good shape and there is dedicated parking out front.

“The parking’s a big advantage here,” Detter said. “The location’s great, too.”

While acknowledging that the office market is a little soft, Detter thinks that once the right prospective tenant sees the condition, features and location he’ll have a deal.
