The property sits on a 25 × 100 ft lot (2,500sqft) with the ability to build up to approximately 8,600 sq ft. The existing structure is around 2,500sqft and in solid condition. The current tenant operates a successful neighborhood deli under a 5 year remaining lease, paying $6,000/month ($72,000/year).
