Overview

This offering consists of an approximately 8,000-square-foot retail building with a roughly 4,000-square-foot basement. The basement is accessible through both a walk-in entrance and a roll-up door, providing direct options for storage, back-of-house use, or distribution. The property also includes a fenced lot with parking. The building is described as formerly operating as Public Hardware retail.

The property is located in downtown Durham and is positioned within walking distance of local dining and shopping. Public remarks also note that the City of Durham previously approved a larger development concept, keeping the prior approval on file with the Durham Planning Department.

For retail tenants, this layout can support street-level merchandising with dedicated below-grade space that can be reached by roll-up door access. For developers and buyers, the remarks indicate a previously approved 15-story building concept with four parking levels, more than 200 multi-family units, associated amenities, and infrastructure totaling over 350,000 square feet, remaining on the books under A-D2300216 (referenced in the remarks via Durham Planning Department).
