Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This 7,108-square-foot commercial building combines an income-producing retail storefront with unfinished space above. The main level measures approximately 3,458 square feet and features 14-foot ceilings; it is leased to an established retail tenant, while the operating business is excluded from the sale. The approximately 3,650-square-foot upper floor is vacant and largely reduced to framing, providing a basis for a multi-unit residential or live/work conversion.
The property occupies a prominent corner in historic downtown Manistee along River Street. A private parking lot west of the building adds dedicated downtown parking and may support future development. Recent improvements include a new roof and updated HVAC. Built in 1883, the structure also offers stucco and brick construction, forced-air heat, central air, broadband, cable availability, and a basement.
