A rare opportunity to own a truly one-of-a-kind historic mixed-use property where timeless character meets modern convenience. The original front portion of the building was constructed in 1863, with an addition completed in 1903. Encompassing 6,820 square feet, this remarkable property has been meticulously restored and transformed by its current owners into a true labor of love. From 2019 to 2021, the building underwent an extensive renovation from the ground up. While preserving the original brick walls, stunning tin ceilings, and historic charm, nearly every interior component was replaced or upgraded, including windows, electrical, plumbing, fixtures, flooring, and mechanical systems. The result is a beautiful blend of old-world craftsmanship and modern functionality.

The main level features a charming retail boutique and an exceptional gourmet farm-to-table restaurant. The lower level is home to the Scalehouse Lounge, a unique speakeasy-inspired space showcasing a custom bar crafted from a vintage grain bin. Behind the bar sits the historic Hub Printing scale from the company that printed the first issue of Playboy magazine-ingeniously repurposed as a liquor display and unforgettable conversation piece. Additional lower-level amenities include heated floors, heated exterior entry steps, antique light fixtures, a gaming room, and two restrooms. An elevator provides convenient access between levels, assisting with restaurant operations while also enhancing accessibility throughout the building. The upper level features two beautifully appointed Airbnb suites, each offering a full kitchen and private bath. Additional improvements include a full-building sprinkler system and comprehensive security system, providing peace of mind for owners and guests alike.
