Constructed on a 25' * 66' lot, the building provides scale, flexibility, and development potential.

Additional floor area may also be negotiable. Originally built in 1901, this storefront retains its grandfathered commercial use within the current R6A zoning (verification required). The interior layout features an approximate 23' * 65' footprint, with two large rooms divided by a non-structural brick wall. The front room, approximately 23' * 30', has corner exposure on Tompkins Ave & Kosciuszko St and dual entrances. The back room, approximately 23' * 34', has an entrance on Kosciuszko St. Ceilings are just over 12' high. The stone-walled cellar, approximately 21' * 28', is column-free and located beneath the front room. This property is suited for an owner-user, creative commercial operator, or investor seeking a value-add opportunity.
