Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This mixed-use property offers a flexible layout that combines a ground-floor commercial storefront with a residential footprint on the upper level. The street-level space includes two garage door bays, supporting a range of commercial uses such as retail, auto service, storage, logistics, office, car sales, or studio/event space. Upstairs, the generous residential area provides a layout that can be converted into two full apartments, creating an additional income option within the same building.

The building is situated on the Germantown corridor with access to nearby daily conveniences, including public transportation, shops, and eateries. The remarks also note proximity to La Salle University and an area that is seeing reinvestment and demand. On-site parking for up to 14 cars supports customer and tenant access.

Zoned CMX2, the configuration supports multiple operating approaches, including an owner-occupied business with rental income, or a multi-family conversion for the upper level. For buyers and operators seeking a single-site property that can accommodate both commercial activity and residential revenue, this building’s existing storefront and upper-level residential massing provide a practical starting point for a range of tenant mix strategies.
