The property is located in the heart of DeKalb’s Central Business District, with access to downtown DeKalb, NIU, schools, shopping, and interstate routes. It includes a walk-up attic and a full basement with laundry hookups for additional storage and convenience. Outside, there is ample parking, a one-car attached garage, and heated exterior steps and a ramp designed for winter access.
For an owner-operator, the layout supports living on the main level while collecting rental income from the existing tenants, with leases secured through June 2026. The roof was installed in 2013, and the zoning is listed as COMMR, making this an appealing option for investors or operators seeking a turnkey mixed-use asset with both business space and residential cash flow.
