This offering presents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully licensed preschool and child care center along with the underlying real estate in California’s Central Valley. Properties of this type rarely come to market, combining both a profitable operating business and a purpose-built facility in a family-driven community.
The facility is approximately 3,200+ square feet situated on nearly 0.40 acres, featuring multiple classrooms, dual ADA restrooms, two HVAC units, and a secure, fully fenced outdoor play yard of more than 4,800 square feet. Originally constructed in the early 1970s and upgraded in the mid-2000s, the building has been continuously maintained and remains in excellent condition. The layout provides flexible configurations for classrooms and age groups while ensuring compliance with licensing requirements.
The business is licensed for over 60 children, offering immediate scale and strong revenue potential. With a long history of community trust, the center has consistently served families in the area and built an outstanding reputation. Current operations provide stable income, while upside opportunities remain for the next owner, including:
* Increasing enrollment to full licensed capacity
* Aligning tuition rates with market averages
* Expanding participation in California subsidy programs (CCTR, CACFP, and others)
* Introducing enrichment offerings such as after-school care, summer camps, and STEM or arts programs
The surrounding market offers strong demographics to support ongoing growth. The trade area consists of a large share of working and dual-income households that rely on consistent, high-quality early childhood education. Central accessibility, nearby residential density, and long-standing community visibility make this property an attractive location for families seeking child care solutions.
Multiple exit strategies are available for qualified buyers: acquire both the business and real estate for a turnkey package, purchase the real estate as a long-term investment with a tenant in place, or acquire the business with the option to lease the facility. Each option provides flexibility depending on a buyer’s profile and objectives.
This opportunity is an excellent candidate for SBA 7(a) financing or conventional lending, as both the business cash flow and the real estate value provide strong support for financing structures. Sellers are motivated by retirement, creating a clean transition and a genuine offering for the right buyer.
