Overview

This offering presents a Detroit House of Pancakes restaurant building totaling 4,807 square feet, described as having historic charm. The property is offered on an absolute NNN lease structure with zero landlord responsibilities, and the lease includes a personal guarantee.

The building is located on Detroit’s East Jefferson Corridor in the Rivertown Warehouse District. The area is described as densely populated, with over 69,000 residents within a three-mile radius. The property also benefits from high exposure on Jefferson Avenue, cited at more than 25,000 vehicles per day, and it sits in close proximity to major Detroit venues including Comerica Park, Little Caesars Arena, Ford Field, and GM’s Headquarters.

From a tenant fit perspective, the layout and existing restaurant identity support continued restaurant use, while the asset is also described as being suitable for a retail or restaurant venture. For prospective operators evaluating a low-touch ownership model, the absolute NNN and zero landlord responsibilities are central considerations for budgeting and daily operations.
