Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This for-sale property on Lakeshore Drive is described as a commercial asset that may require conversion to residential after sale due to new zoning requirements. The remarks indicate the site is currently zoned for a 2-unit residential property, with potential for an alternative residential configuration such as a single-family or PUD, subject to City approval. The property is also noted as having a height limitation not to exceed 35 feet.

The offering is positioned with lake views and is described as being approximately one block from beach access. As with any development-related opportunity, prospective buyers and agents should verify all zoning, approval requirements, and redevelopment feasibility during due diligence.

For contractors and developers, this may present a conversion and reconfiguration opportunity where residential uses are contemplated under City approval. The stated unit count possibilities range from 4 to 6 in the remarks; however, the specific final outcome would depend on permitting, site planning, and compliance with applicable development standards. Buyer and buyers’ agents should confirm all details, including zoning requirements and allowable residential uses, prior to underwriting or submitting plans.

Key Highlights

  • Commercial property on Lake Shore Drive with lake (Lake Michigan) waterfront features
