About this home
Cash-flow investment opportunity. Your chance to own a profitable mixed-use investment property in the heart of the City of Wilmington. Its ready to go and has a strong rental history. The building offers an excellent opportunity for a first-floor business tenant (hair salon) along with two 2-bedroom apartments. Total rents are approximately $4,000 per month, creating strong income potential for an investment property.
Many major systems have been replaced in recent years, including water heaters, electrical panels, windows, and many interior finishes.
The first floor is currently operating as a hair salon and is very nicely laid out. A highly visible entrance with signage faces 4th Street and Adam Street on this corner property. An attractive entrance leads into a comfortable waiting area for clients. Toward the back is the main salon area with room for multiple stylists to work comfortably. The lighting and layout are well suited for salon use. Further back is the wash area with two stations, spacious and well equipped. A short hall leads to an additional studio space for private styling, with chair and lighting already in place. This floor is completed by a nicely decorated half bathroom available for client use.
The apartments are accessed through a side entrance on Adams Street. The common stairway leads to the second and third floor apartments, each with its own private entrance.
The second-floor apartment currently has a good tenant in place who would like to stay and maintains the apartment well. Rent is $1,200 per month, and the tenant pays electric and gas. Upon entering the apartment, the first bedroom is on the left and offers a generous closet. Toward the front of the property is the second bedroom, also with a good closet. The apartment includes an updated bathroom, followed by the kitchen, which offers generous counter space, a compact refrigerator, and ample cabinetry. The kitchen could also function as a small eat-in space. At the front of the property is the living room, which benefits from excellent natural light from both sides due to the corner location.
The third-floor apartment has a very similar layout to the second floor and is currently vacant. The unit has just been painted, updated with new flooring, and refreshed, making it ready for a new tenant. Estimated rent is $1,200 per month.
The basement contains separate utilities for the units, including four electrical panels (three units plus a landlord panel), three hot water heaters, and three gas furnaces, with two located in the basement and one located in a closet within the third-floor apartment. The basement also provides additional storage space.
Excellent location just off Adams Street and 4th Street. The property is walkable to the central business district, shopping, dining, convenience stores, transportation, the train station, bus routes, and many other Center City amenities.
48 hours notice required due to tenants in place.
