Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

2501 & 2521 North Market St presents a well-maintained, extensively renovated corner commercial property with both commercial and residential components. The main floor and lower level offer three flexible, multi-tenant-capable floor plans that can be demised into at least three areas: the main 12-inch ceiling fire hall (~1,736 +/- SF), a new brick addition (~1,108 +/- SF), and the lower level (~1,620 +/- SF). These spaces are adaptable for a range of uses, including retail, office, showroom, workshop, restaurant, daycare, special purpose, and storage, among other mixed-use concepts. The upper level contains two renovated 2BR/2BA residential apartments, which can function as owner/user residences or additional rental income, subject to city permitting if used as short-term lodging.

The property sits along the North Market Street corridor with prominent corner presence and convenient access. On-site parking is located at the rear, including a gated parking lot of at least 20 spaces, with potential to add more parking. A new central sprinkler system and alarm were recently installed throughout the building.

With immediate occupancy and the ability to support multiple configurations on the ground level, the building can fit customer-facing operations, service providers, or owner-users seeking on-site residential use. Its combination of flexible commercial space and two apartments also supports mixed-use occupancy strategies where both business and housing are under one roof.
