Description
Incredible Live / Work / Invest Opportunity - Prime Downtown / Southside
Rare mixed-use offering with endless possibilities. Enjoy an exceptional city residence while generating steady monthly income from five separate rental units. This one-of-a-kind Historic Victorian Italianate building features retail + apartments, a private courtyard, terraces, balconies with city and mountain views, and on-site parking.
Located in a prime Downtown / Southside setting, this circa-1910 property, listed on the Historic Register, showcases classic Victorian Italianate architecture including ornamental parapets, arched windows, and distinctive period details. A true downtown landmark, the property seamlessly blends historic charm with modern versatility—just steps from restaurants, boutiques, and entertainment.
The main level offers a stunning street-level retail space (currently a bridal boutique) with 12-foot ceilings and large display windows, providing excellent visibility and strong pedestrian exposure. Behind the retail space, a private courtyard leads to a detached carriage house with a studio apartment, ideal for additional rental income, guest quarters, or creative use.
Upstairs, three residential units feature open floor plans, high ceilings, and abundant natural light. The second-floor apartment offers a spacious layout with a large balcony and private terrace, while the third floor includes two one-bedroom apartments with sweeping city and mountain views.
With seven on-site parking spaces, multiple outdoor living areas, and an unbeatable Downtown / Southside location, this exceptional property offers outstanding flexibility as an investment asset, live/work opportunity, or potential conversion to a grand single-family residence.
