Description:
A confirmed zoning determination has established that 534 W. Broad Street offers up to 1,325 SF of ground floor commercial space available by right under C2 zoning — no township approval required, no conditional use process, no variance. The right exists in the zoning as written.
The property's first floor consists of two adjacent units: the approximately 725 SF former Rita's Water Ice commercial space and the approximately 600 SF Unit currently leased for 3 yrs starting at $1400 with annual escalations. Both are permitted for commercial use by right. A buyer may open the connecting wall for one 1,325 SF connected commercial footprint or operate them as two separate units for different commercial tenants or uses. The incoming owner may convert to commercial at lease expiration by right — no approval required. Units 2 and 3 residential ($925 and $1,400/month- with annual escalation) continue providing stabilized upstairs income regardless of first floor configuration decisions.
Current gross income $61,500. Going-in NOI approximately $47,950 at 25% expense ratio — 7.74% cap rate at $625,000 ask. Stabilized pro forma improves materially as residential rents reach market and first floor commercial is repositioned.
