Investment Insights

The premises include 3,799 square feet of retail frontage along North Milwaukee Avenue, together with a large working kitchen designed for food production. Existing plumbing, power, and kitchen infrastructure support a functioning operational setup rather than a vacant shell.

The ground floor was renovated in 2022 and is delivered fully equipped. Food production is already permitted, and the space includes the improvements associated with a bakery operation. Its configuration provides both customer-facing frontage and substantial back-of-house kitchen capacity within the same premises.
