Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This two-story, mixed-use building is offered as a 100% fee-simple interest and is currently 100% leased. The property includes one ground-floor retail space, seven apartment units, and four garage parking spaces. The building totals approximately 13,520 square feet on a 17,740-square-foot site with about 62 feet of frontage along West Belmont Avenue.

The ground-floor retail space is leased to Bittersweet Pastry Shop & Cafe, a neighborhood bakery operating since 1992. The remarks indicate this location serves as Bittersweet’s flagship shop and central production facility for baked goods distributed to its other Chicago locations. The property is positioned along the active Belmont Avenue corridor in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood, approximately three blocks from the CTA Belmont ‘L’ Station, which serves the Red, Brown, and Purple lines. The Belmont Station recorded 2,463,000 boardings in 2025, and the location also provides immediate access to CTA bus routes #8, #22, and #77.

For tenants and owners, the combination of street-level retail and residential units creates a balanced mixed-use configuration on Belmont Avenue. Surrounding retail includes a mix of national and neighborhood tenants listed in the offering, and the area’s day-to-day demand is supported by nearby DePaul University and the professional population in Lakeview, as described in the remarks.
