Positioned prominently on the downtown square in the heart of Aurora, 1123 12th Street is more than just a commercial building, it's a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history fully revitalized for modern business. Originally constructed in 1905, the front 22' x 40' structure carries the timeless character and charm of Aurora's historic square. In 2018, the building underwent a comprehensive top-to-bottom renovation, thoughtfully rebuilt to preserve its historic appeal while delivering the reliability of new construction. Improvements include a new roof, new insulation, new framing, and completely updated electrical and plumbing systems, providing peace of mind for years to come. Expanding the functionality of the property, a fully licensed 22' x 40' commercial kitchen addition was constructed in 2018 using durable concrete block construction and a steel roof. Designed for serious production, the kitchen features new plumbing, new electrical, new gas service, and a 12-foot commercial ventilation hood complete with a professionally installed fire suppression system. Two separate HVAC units ensure comfort and efficiency, one dedicated to the welcoming front retail space and another exclusively serving the kitchen operations. With excellent visibility, strong foot traffic, and a prime location on the downtown square, this property is perfectly suited for an investor seeking high-demand commercial lease space or an ambitious owner-operator ready to open a full-service bakery, café, or restaurant. Historic character meets modern infrastructure in a turnkey space built for success. Opportunities like this on the square don't come around often.
