Own a cornerstone of downtown Hillsboro: Bell's Opera House at 109 to 119 South High Street, a three-story brick landmark built in 1894 to 1895 and opened November 20, 1895, funded by local manufacturer and philanthropist C. S. Bell. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this property delivers the rare blend of legacy and income. The second-floor auditorium was designed for nearly 1,000 seats and still showcases the scale and drama of a true opera house, ready for a visionary restoration into a performance venue, wedding and event space, studio, or creative hub. At street level, four occupied tenant spaces provide immediate cash flow and built in downside protection while you plan the next chapter. If you want an asset that tells a story, anchors a block, and offers multiple exit strategies, this is the one. Steps from courthouse and dining, it contributes to the Hillsboro Historic Business District, making it an unforgettable centerpiece for investors and entrepreneurs.
