Greenville Retail for Lease

241 Easy Street offers businesses the opportunity to secure a spot in the exciting North Greenville Commons commercial hub as the project ramps up development. Built in 2025, 241 Easy Street features contemporary architecture with a charming brick and paneled façade that will coalesce with the new destinations coming to North Greenville Commons. Suite 102 is the last remaining availability at 241 Easy Street. The 1,250-square-foot space provides a blank slate for new occupants to install specified elements, such as commercial kitchen fixtures. Suite 102 is prepped for food service operations with a drive-thru window and a grease trap already installed. The drive-thru capabilities make this especially well-suited for quick-service restaurant (QSR), coffee, café, pharmacy, service-based concepts, and more. North Greenville Commons is set to redefine Greater Greenville and serve the expanding residential and commercial growth. Neighboring businesses like Food Lion and several restaurants have already proven successful in this node and provide immediate co-traffic draws. Adjacent to a new 204-unit apartment community and ECU Health medical facility, both under development, 241 Easy Street benefits from built-in residential and consumer bases. Major employers in the vicinity, such as Thermo Fisher Scientific, Hyster-Yale Group, and Boviet Solar Technology, have already established traffic sources and invigorated residential growth. In fact, demographic projections estimate that total households within a 3-mile radius will increase by 7% from 2025 to 2030, after growing by 11% from 2020 to 2025. With a highly accessible location off Highway 264 and Route 13, the property is poised to maximize exposure as this emerging hub continues to flourish. Inquire now.
