Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This mixed-use building was built in 1890 and has been thoughtfully updated, with the ground floor operating as The Coffee Pot breakfast and lunch cafe for more than two decades. The cafe space is described as fully equipped and operational, positioned for food service and retail use. Upstairs, the property includes two residential apartments, providing rental income alongside the commercial operation.

The property is located at 581 East Main Street in Hobart, Delaware County, and is described as sitting at the most visible corner in Hobart’s Book Village, a destination tied to tourism, outdoor recreation, and second-home ownership. The seller also notes that seller financing is available for well-qualified buyers.

With both a functioning cafe and two separate residential units, the layout supports an owner-operator concept where commercial income and apartment rent can help offset operating costs.

Key Highlights

  • Built in 1890 with wood siding and electric baseboard heating
  • Mixed‑use building with ground‑floor commercial space and two upstairs residential apartments
  • Ground floor has operated as The Coffee Pot breakfast and lunch cafe for over two decades
