1908 Mt. Vernon Ave 13,096 SF 100% Leased Retail Building Alexandria, VA 22301 $3,495,000 ($266.88/SF)



INVESTMENT HIGHLIGHTS
- Prime location in heart of Del Ray
- Free surface parking on E. Howell Ave. lots
- Residential conversion opportunity
- Perfect for user/investor
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
For users, operate your business on the third floor while you benefit from $225,000+ in gross annual income from two existing tenants, USPS and iData, each of which exercised options to extend leases through 12/31/28. USPS has one more 5-year option thereafter.
For investors, lease up the third floor either as is for professional office, or target for more retail-like uses allowed under CL zoning, which could generate a higher rent than straight office. The 3rd floor has intentionally been kept vacant for a prospective owner-user to occupy. If leased, expect another $100K +/- in gross income.
Among the value-add scenarios is to convert the third floor to residential, specifically four 1-BR apartments, that could command up to $2,350 per unit, based on a recent nearby lease comp.
Looking ahead, when lease options eventually expire, the second floor could also be converted to residential under the Mt. Vernon Overlay plan, for a total of eight 1-BR units, and the ground floor could be converted to other uses allowed under existing zoning, including restaurant use, yielding better returns.
Included in asking price are the parking spaces on two RB-zoned lots behind the building at 115-117 E. Howell Ave. Parking allowed on these residential lots under an SUP that would need to be renewed by new owner.
All square footage numbers, including gross building SF of 13,096 SF and net leasable area of 12,600 SF are based on city tax records.

The United States Postal Service has a storied history as the institution of their Government guaranteeing safe and secure communication among and between the Government and the American people. Many are familiar with their history, which began with the Second Continental Congress and Benjamin Franklin in 1775 and continued in 1787 when the Postal Clause of the U.S. Constitution empowered Congress to establish post offices and post roads. Congress exercised those powers with the passage of The Post Office Act of 1792, which made the Postal Service a permanent fixture of the Federal Government. The Act included provisions to facilitate freedom of the press, the privacy of personal correspondence, and expand the nation’s physical infrastructure, all vital to their nation’s growth and prosperity.
