Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This for-sale street retail building offers a single-unit layout with a large open area and a stylish enclosed bar located toward the rear. The property includes an additional basement level for added operational or storage use. It is configured for hospitality-style service and can also support general retail uses under the current zoning framework described in the offering.

The building is located at 3535 Chestnut Ave in Baltimore, MD and is offered within C-1 zoning as stated in the materials. The asset’s storefront-oriented format is designed for tenant-facing customer flow, with the primary interior space arranged to support walk-in sales and service.

For restaurateurs and operators, the enclosed bar and open main area can accommodate a range of layouts for dining or counter-service concepts. For retail users, the same open footprint supports merchandising and customer-facing operations, while the basement adds flexibility for back-of-house needs. Because the property is presented as a single, self-contained unit, it is well suited for an owner-operator or an investor looking for a straightforward retail/street retail tenancy structure consistent with C-1 zoning.
