Versatile PO-Zoned Office Minutes from Midtown A 2,563 sq ft professional office building plus a separate 527 sq ft studio apartment on one PO-zoned parcel near Virginia Lake — a combination that's hard to find in central Reno. The main building has operated as a chiropractic practice and is well suited to continued medical, wellness, or professional office use. The business is not included in the sale, so the space delivers ready for a new owner-user. The upstairs offers genuine flexibility: additional treatment or office rooms, a second living space, or a separate suite to sublease for offsetting income. The detached 527 sq ft studio is a real advantage — owner or staff housing, a rental, or a quiet second workspace apart from the main building. Parking is often the constraint on properties like this. Here the asphalt lot has been freshly refinished, with substantial off-street parking for staff and clients. Location is the other draw. The property sits among established professional offices, service businesses, and multifamily housing, with Virginia Lake Park and its walking loop just minutes away. The Plumb Lane corridor puts Reno Public Market, grocery, dining, and everyday retail within easy reach, and Midtown's southern boundary at Plumb Lane begins just up the road — its restaurants, coffee shops, and independent retail a short drive north. Downtown Reno, the university, and I-80 follow on the same Virginia Street corridor. Owner-users, investors, and live-work buyers should take a look. Schedule your private tour today.
