Layout: Two-story office/retail space with finished basement and utility room
One-story, one-bedroom with rooftop deck
Potential to easily convert second-floor office space to dwelling unit for highest and best use
The commercial space exudes bright natural light, featuring gleaming hardwood floors throughout both the first and second floors, along with a finished basement that offers extra usable space. You’ll find a convenient half bath on both the first floor and the basement. With charming exposed brick walls, spacious staircases, recessed lighting, and elegant crown moldings, this office/retail space is truly turnkey.

Moving up to the third-floor apartment, you’ll discover the same high-end finishes. The kitchen boasts wood shaker cabinets, granite countertops, and a complete stainless-steel kitchen suite, including a French Door refrigerator, dishwasher, garbage disposal, and over-the-range microwave. The bathroom is adorned with a modern vanity, a vinyl tub with marble tile surround, and matching marble flooring. The inclusion of a stacked washer and dryer adds extra value for residential tenants.

Furthermore, the rooftop deck offers breathtaking, almost panoramic views of southern Baltimore City. To maximize your long-term investment, consider converting the second floor into a second apartment—an economically wise choice, with an estimated cost of less than $50,000. Given the building’s ample width and depth, adding a kitchen, full bath, and HVAC is entirely feasible. Don’t miss this opportunity to unlock the full potential of this property. This Federal Hill mixed-use building meets all current building codes and standards. The storefront window is wooden per historical architectural preservation guidelines, but all other windows have been upgraded to double-hung vinyl replacement, creating energy savings for tenants and allowing for easy turnover when lead testing is performed between residential tenancies. The office is served by a 90% gas-fired furnace and central air conditioning; the apartment has an electric heat pump with central air conditioning. The first floor, second floor and basement are on one electric meter; the third-floor apartment is on a separate electric meter. With 200 amps feeding the building, an electrical service upgrade would not be necessary. One gas meter serves the property, and the converted dwelling unit could be fed by electric or gas as for heating and or cooking fuel. 1133 Light Street meets the latest fire code with a full sprinkler system. Located 1 short block to the Cross Street Market, a “beloved landmark, culinary destination and cherished gathering place that continues to etch its place in the hearts of locals and victors alike.” Neighborhood bars and restaurants add to the nightlife that Federal Hill is known for, including the original Ropewalk Tavern and Magerks. Orioles Gamedays and football Sundays keep the streets filled with fans and energy. With easy access to I-95 and 295, traveling to points north and south is a breeze.
