This mixed-use storefront property for sale includes two separately deeded parcels combined into a single functional site. The space totals approximately 3,800 square feet and consists of expansive open floor plans spanning both buildings, connected by multiple interior openings and basement access. Ceiling height is approximately 11 feet, and rooftop industrial ventilation fans support commercial operations.
