Circa-1870 historical mixed-use property offering a versatile combination of professional office space and two residential apartments. The first floor features a spacious open reception and waiting area, a conference room, and two offices, supported by two additional private offices for flexible use or potential rental space. Residential components include two apartments with a private front entrance: the second-floor unit offers a living room, kitchen, full bath, a large bedroom with two closets, and an outdoor deck, while the third-floor unit includes a family room, kitchen, bedroom with two closets, a dedicated office, and a full bath with shower. The lower level provides tenant laundry along with storage and additional utility/storage space.

Set on a generously sized property in downtown Chatham, the building is located next to the train station and just moments from shops, dining, and everyday conveniences. On-site parking totals 22 spaces, supporting a tenant mix that can accommodate both professional visits and resident access.

Configured to serve owner-users, investors, or multi-tenant professional occupancy, the office layout supports a range of professional uses including medical, legal, wellness, financial, or boutique professional services.

Financial Insights

Estimated NOI and Cap Rate

NOI = area × lease_rate × (100 − vacancy) / 100 × (1 − expense_ratio). Net Operating Income — what the owner takes home each year before mortgage payments and income tax. Effective rent (asking rent minus vacancy losses) minus operating costs (taxes, insurance, maintenance, management).
NOI / Yr
$61,372
Cap rate = NOI / list price × 100. Capitalization rate — annual return on a fully cash purchase, before financing. NOI divided by price. Higher means more income per dollar invested, but usually also more risk or older condition. 5–8% is typical for stabilized commercial property; double digits often signal distressed deals.
Cap Rate
4.09%
Suggested Prices Based on Cap Rates Cap rates vary significantly by property type, market, and asset quality. Typical U.S. stable-market ranges: Multifamily — 4.5% to 6.5% (Class A in primary markets often sub-5%; Class C in secondary markets 6%+) Industrial / Logistics — 5.0% to 7.0% (compressed heavily in recent years due to e-commerce demand) Office — 6.5% to 9%+ (wide spread post-2020; CBD Class A vs. suburban Class B varies dramatically) Retail — 5.5% to 8.5% (grocery-anchored on the low end, unanchored strip centers higher) Hospitality / Hotels — 7.5% to 10%+ (higher due to operational risk) Self-Storage — 5.5% to 7.5% Medical Office — 6.0% to 7.5% Net Lease (single tenant, credit) — 5.0% to 7.0% depending on tenant credit and lease term Rules of thumb: Primary markets (NYC, SF, LA, Boston, DC) trade at lower cap rates than secondary/tertiary markets, often by 100–200 bps (bps, aka basis points; 1 bp = 0.01%). Class A assets trade ~50–150 bps tighter than Class B, and Class B tighter than Class C. Cap rates move inversely with price — a lower cap rate means a higher price for the same NOI. Spread to the 10-year Treasury is a common benchmark; historically 200–400 bps over the 10-year.
