Property Description
**Own a Piece of Tonganoxie History!** Built in 1890, this remarkable two-story commercial building at 511 E. 4th Street offers a rare opportunity to own one of downtown Tonganoxie's historic landmarks. Originally constructed by prominent businessman W.C. Phenicie, the property has served the community for more than 135 years, housing a variety of businesses, including an early furniture and undertaking establishment, hardware store, grocery market, and most famously, Shilling Electric.
Beginning in 1948, Shilling Electric operated from this location for more than 75 years, becoming a fixture in the community with its General Electric and Westinghouse appliances, electrical supplies, and service operations. Generations of local residents remember visiting this historic storefront.
Featuring two stories and approximately 7,850 square feet, this property offers tremendous potential for retail, office, showroom, specialty business, or creative redevelopment. The expansive main level provides flexible commercial space, while the second story offers additional possibilities for storage or future adaptive reuse.
Rich in local heritage and historic character, the building was even the subject of a dedicated historic preservation study documenting its architectural significance and colorful past.
Whether you're an entrepreneur, investor, or preservation enthusiast, this is your opportunity to write the next chapter in the history of one of Tonganoxie's longstanding commercial properties. Bring your vision and discover the possibilities!
**Property is being offered as-is. Buyer to verify square footage, condition, zoning, and suitability for intended use.**
