Functional Layout & Immediate Income

This 2,144-square-foot building is designed for maximum utility, providing a steady revenue stream alongside a blank canvas for expansion:

• First Floor (Income-Producing Retail): The ground level is currently occupied by an active restaurant tenant, generating $1,500 per month plus expenses. This immediate cash flow helps offset carrying costs while you develop the remainder of the building.

• Second Floor (The Value-Add Shell): The upper level is currently in shell condition, offering a completely open floor plan ready for interior construction. Whether you envision a modern executive office, a creative studio, or a luxury loft apartment, this space is ready for your custom design.

• Versatile Zoning: With C-2 (Community Commercial) zoning, the possibilities are vast. The city allows for retail, professional office, or residential uses, giving you the flexibility to pivot your strategy as the market evolves.

Historic Charm Meets Modern Reliability

While the building carries the architectural prestige of the 1920s, the critical maintenance has been proactively addressed to minimize your move-in or renovation costs:

• Exterior Masonry: The classic brick façade has been professionally re-pointed, preserving the structural integrity and enhancing the building's curb appeal.

• Roofing: The roof is in good condition, providing peace of mind and a dry environment for your interior buildout.

• Expert Buildout Assistance: To streamline your transition, the seller is willing to serve as the general contractor for the new owner. You can purchase the building at an affordable entry price and have a professional team ready to execute your interior design vision immediately.

Investment Highlights

• Affordable Entry Point: Priced at only $128 per square foot, this is a rare opportunity to own a standalone building for less than the cost of many condo units.

• Strategic Transformation District: Benefit from the massive public and private investment flowing into the Perkins Somerset Oldtown area.
