Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Located on the corner of Stephenson and Ludington in Escanaba, this mixed-use property houses two businesses. La Cantina Mexican restaurant occupies part of the building and pays $3200 per month, covering all of their utilities. The restaurant is interested in signing a long-term lease. The restaurant has separate heating and cooling systems. The other part of the building is currently occupied by Novak's used car sales and repair shop, which will be vacating the premises. However, they will be leaving behind a car hoist, a large air compressor, and tire racks. The garage area includes an office, a bathroom, a natural gas heater, and a wood furnace. The repair shop and used car lot could be used as a machine shop or other industrial facility. Additionally, the sale includes two lots located across the alley. The roof over the restaurant was replaced in 2025 with a rubberized sealing at a cost of $40,000.

Key Highlights

  • Prime corner location at the intersection of Escanaba, Stephenson, and Ludington.
  • Existing tenant provides immediate rental income of $3200/month plus utilities, with potential for a long‑term lease.
  • Restaurant roof replaced in 2025 with a $40,000 rubberized sealing.
