Listing Description
Prime 6,250 SF (50' x 125') corner development site situated on a high-visibility signalized-adjacent corner in Chicago's thriving Belmont Heights/Dunning corridor. This strategic 0.16-acre lot offers 50 feet of frontage on Irving Park Road, a major Northwest Side artery with traffic counts exceeding 18,000 VPD. Zoned C1-2 (Neighborhood Commercial), the property provides broad flexibility for retail, professional office, or medical use, with the added potential for multi-story mixed-use development featuring residential units above ground-floor commercial. The site currently includes a fully renovated (2024) 4,055 SF freestanding structure with a turnkey restaurant, an apartment unit above, and a rare 15-car dedicated side parking lot, providing immediate utility or a high-income holding opportunity while final plans are secured. Located in Jefferson Township (Area 8017) within Chicago School District 299, the property is just blocks from the Harlem-Irving Plaza (HIP) and benefits from the dense, high-income residential demographics ($92k+ median HHI) of the surrounding neighborhood. Excellent proximity to the I-90/294 O'Hare corridor and heavy commuter bus transit makes this an ideal flagship location for national retailers or local developers seeking maximum Northwest Side exposure.
