Property Description
Welcome to the Franklin Foundry! Just blocks from Downtown Bend, this character-rich, two-unit property is a true blank canvas, zoned Commercial General and ready to be shaped into its next chapter. Formerly a guitar builder's workshop, the building is full of warmth and originality, featuring custom wood windows and fir and bamboo flooring throughout. Recent updates include exterior paint in 2020 and a freshly painted interior, creating a clean starting point for a wide range of uses. With a flexible layout, unfinished basement storage, and a coveted downtown location near dining, shopping, and events, the Franklin Foundry offers a rare opportunity to reimagine a space with vision — whether creative, commercial, a successful short term rental or mixed-use — in the heart of Bend. Historically a foundry is a place where raw materials are transformed into something new, and that spirit of possibility and endless potential lives here.
