Description:

Douglas Elliman Commercial is pleased to present 9-17 Clintonville Street, Whitestone, NY, a rare mixed-use commercial property formerly occupied by a well-known neighborhood restaurant. The property offers a unique opportunity for an owner-user, restaurateur, hospitality operator, specialty food concept, or investor seeking a scarce commercial-use asset in one of Queens’ most established residential communities.

The building features a ground-floor restaurant / retail component with an upper-level residential apartment. The apartment is currently large in scale and offers the potential to be reconfigured into two apartment residences, creating additional income, live-work flexibility, or housing for an owner/operator.

One of the property’s strongest value drivers is its apparent preexisting commercial / restaurant use within an area currently zoned R2A, where new commercial uses are generally limited. This creates a compelling opportunity for buyers who understand the value of preserving and continuing a long-standing commercial use in a predominantly residential neighborhood.

The property is especially well suited for:

Restaurant owner-users seeking to own rather than lease
Chef-driven or family-run restaurant concepts
Café, bakery, specialty food, or neighborhood hospitality operators
Local investors looking for mixed-use income potential
Buyers seeking a live-work opportunity with upstairs residential income
Operators who value a neighborhood location with history and identity

With limited comparable opportunities in Whitestone, the property offers a strong combination of commercial utility, residential upside, neighborhood recognition, and long-term ownership potential.

A rare mixed-use, corner commercial property formerly occupied by a well-known neighborhood restaurant. The property offers a unique opportunity for an owner-user, restaurateur, hospitality operator, specialty food concept, or investor seeking a scarce commercial-use asset in one of Queens’ most established residential communities.
