Addendum
A rare opportunity for investors, owner-occupants, or entrepreneurs seeking a property with multiple possibilities.
This corner building stands out for its character-filled architecture and windows on three sides, providing abundant natural light. Currently configured with two residential units and a spacious ground-floor commercial space, it offers particularly exciting potential thanks to the possibility of dual occupancy.
One of the residential units and the commercial space are currently vacant, offering great flexibility to the next owner.
The former butcher shop space is truly a blank canvas waiting to be reimagined. With ceilings approximately 9 feet high and generous dimensions, it could host a new commercial venture or be redesigned for conversion into residential space, subject to the necessary municipal approvals. The original cold room remains in place, a testament to the property's original use.
For an owner-occupant, the potential is especially appealing: imagine transforming the ground floor into a custom residence while retaining rental income from the upstairs unit. For an entrepreneur or investor, the current layout allows for the exploration of various commercial and rental avenues. The sellers had actually considered developing their own project for the building before deciding to focus their efforts elsewhere.
The building also features a full-sized basement with a clearance of approximately 6'1" between joists, providing valuable extra space for storage and the building's future needs.
The residential units benefit from the building's charm, featuring wood flooring and plenty of natural light. The kitchens and bathrooms in both units were renovated in 2023, along with the plumbing and electrical systems. The building's layout allows you to combine occupancy, rental income, and a transformation project all under one roof.
At the rear, two parking spaces complete the property--a highly practical feature.
Whether you envision establishing a business, creating your future home, developing a real estate project, or benefiting from a mix of occupancy and income, this building offers an exceptional foundation for bringing your ideas to life.
A building with tremendous potential, simply waiting for its next chapter!
