Tranzon Auction Properties presents a rare opportunity to acquire a 5,352+/- sq. ft. commercial condominium in the center of Portland's most dynamic district. Positioned between Congress Street's arts, retail, and business corridor and the Old Port's waterfront energy, this property sits in one of the city's highest-traffic, highest-visibility locations - steps from Cross Insurance Arena, Monument Square, and numerous shops, offices, and cultural venues.

Built in 1875, the building reflects Portland's historic brick-and-granite architectural character while offering modern commercial functionality. The 3,088+/- sq. ft. street-level space features tall ceilings, large arched windows, and an adaptable open layout well-suited for retail, showroom, creative studio, hospitality, or continued food service use.

The lower level includes 2,264+/- sq. ft. of storage, office, and support space with fire-safety systems, mechanicals, and flexible utility infrastructure. The property's existing commercial kitchen and walk-ins provide optional value for those who wish to operate a cafe, tasting room, or restaurant, but the space is equally positioned for non-food commercial use.

B-3 Downtown Business zoning allows a wide range of uses, making this an appealing opportunity for owners and investors seeking a strategically located downtown foothold. The immediate area benefits from consistent foot traffic, proximity to major employers, year-round tourism, and strong residential density - all contributing to Portland's reputation as one of New England's most vibrant small cities.
