Located at 1508 Spring Street, the Mountain State College property offers approximately 14,000 square feet, with three finished floors plus a basement with partly finished areas. The offering includes two lots: the building parcel and a rear lot accommodating approximately 10 parking spaces.

A November 1936 court record describes a three-story brick college building at Sixteenth and Spring Streets, documenting the property's longstanding connection to the community. The college's educational legacy included bookkeeping, accounting, secretarial studies, and business administration. The first floor features approximately 12 rooms, while the second floor includes the library. Each floor has restroom facilities with stalls. Features and improvements include an exterior wheelchair-access ramp, newer staircases, illuminated exit signage, newer first-floor windows, and updated first-floor electrical. Per seller, the building has been inspected and approved by the fire marshal. Previous leaks have been repaired, with no known active leaks reported. The versatile layout offers possibilities for residential use, offices, training facilities, community services, or other commercial uses, subject to applicable requirements and approvals. Bring your vision to the next chapter of this longstanding Parkersburg property! A separately owned building across the street may also be available for purchase. That property is not included in this offering; availability and terms require separate confirmation.
