Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This mixed-use building at 848 Duss Ave combines a renovated street-level commercial storefront with two residential units above. The first floor features large display windows and direct street-level access, with improvements previously built out for a restaurant concept. The space is designed to support food service, café, bakery, retail, salon, fitness studio, professional office, or other service-based uses, with permitted uses to be verified with the borough. Separately metered gas, electric, and water help support clear expense allocation and simplified billing.

The property is located along a well-traveled commercial corridor in Ambridge and is positioned directly across from Ambridge High School. Public remarks note approximately 6,000+ vehicles pass daily, and the building offers strong street presence with street parking available nearby.

Above the storefront are two vacant units: one 1-bedroom unit configured as a studio and one 3-bedroom unit that is largely functional with minor cosmetic updates remaining. The combination of a finished commercial space and vacant residential units makes the property suitable for buyers seeking a live-work setup, business-and-income configuration, or a mixed-use plan that includes renovating the residential component to match their goals. Current commercial zoning is identified as Mixed, and buyers should confirm permitted uses with the local authority.
