785 O'Brien Road, Renfrew, Ontario presents a rare opportunity to acquire a prime retail development site strategically positioned within the Town of Renfrew's dominant commercial corridor.The property benefits from prior Site Plan Approval and full municipal registration, significantly reducing entitlement risk and accelerating development timelines. An existing concept plan contemplates a multi-tenant retail configuration, with national tenants such as Starbucks, KFC, and Fat Bastard Burrito Co. identified as potential occupants, offering immediate leasing momentum for a purchaser seeking to advance the current vision.Comprising approximately 1.21 acres, the site is zoned C2 (Highway Commercial), permitting a wide range of retail uses, including drive-thru facilities-a critical feature for national QSR and service-based tenants.Positioned directly across from a No Frills-anchored retail centre, the property enjoys strong traffic volumes, excellent visibility, and prominent frontage along O'Brien Road, Renfrew's primary commercial artery. The surrounding retail node is anchored by a strong roster of national brands, including Walmart, Canadian Tire, Dollarama, LCBO, Giant Tiger, A&W, and Tim Hortons-creating a critical mass of destination retail that drives consistent consumer traffic.Renfrew serves as a key commercial hub within Renfrew County, drawing from a regional population of approximately 90,000 residents across 17 municipalities, while benefiting from its proximity-just one hour-to Ottawa. This positioning supports both local demand and regional draw, making it an ideal location for national retailers and service-oriented uses.
