514 Rutledge Street, Camden, SC 29020

Rare commercial opportunity in the heart of Historic Camden. Know to locals as "The Paddock" or "Old Armory". This early 1900's brick building is +/-6,100 SF and originally served as the City's armory, later became a restaurant, and was extensively renovated in 2023 as an event venue and commercial catering facility.

The property includes a nearly 1,500 SF main dining room, additional 1,000+ SF between the custom bar and upper dining area, reception space off front entrance, 2 separate restrooms, plus covered outdoor dining. The large commercial kitchen is more than 900 sq.

ft, with multiple cooktops/grills, exhaust system, commercial dishwashing station, two walk-in coolers, prep areas (inquire for full list of what conveys) and plenty of storage and office space. Great curb appeal with 3 entrances off the front, side and rear service entry.

Street parking is available along Rutledge, with City of Camden public parking adjoining much of the side and rear. Recent improvements include roof resurfacing, replacing several components of the HVAC systems, electric and plumbing updates as well as full cosmetic improvements.

Located one block from Broad Street, directly behind Camden's new boutique hotel development, near established downtown businesses, and adjoining the Town Green event area. Continued downtown investment in hospitality, tourism, historic redevelopment, and locally owned businesses strengthens this location within Camden's growing downtown commercial district.
