**Live where you work — a rare mixed-use opportunity in the heart of St. John's.** Perfectly positioned in a central, highly accessible part of the city, this versatile property pairs comfortable residential living with a turnkey commercial space, offering a genuinely unique opportunity for the entrepreneur ready to build something of their own. The residential side features four spacious bedrooms and a full bath, with recently installed new flooring and fresh paint throughout that give the home a clean, move-in-ready feel. An attached garage and a fully fenced backyard round out the living space, providing privacy, storage, and room to enjoy. The commercial side is set up for food service, complete with a commercial kitchen, dedicated storage, and a takeout/lobby area — ideal for launching your own takeout, bakery, catering operation, or specialty food business. Set within a residential neighbourhood that carries an established commercial use, this is the kind of location and zoning combination that's hard to find and even harder to replicate.
