Overview

This early 1900s storefront building offers 5,366 sf of finished space and prominent corner presence. The property also includes a huge walk-out basement, which provides the opportunity to add approximately 1,700 sf of usable space, depending on the layout and permitting.

Set on a busy corner in Downtown Durham’s Business District, the building overlooks pedestrian-friendly CCB Plaza. It is bordered by well-known hotels including The Durham, Unscripted, 21c, and Marriott, with a concentration of restaurants, shops, and entertainment venues nearby. Corner exposure is available along both Foster and Chapel Hill streets.

The existing storefront configuration is well suited for retail and service users seeking street-level visibility, with the walk-out basement offering an additional option for expanding functional space. Public remarks also indicate flexible zoning, which may support a range of operating concepts for qualified tenants and buyers.
