1909 University Ave 4,725 SF Retail Building Berkeley, CA 94704 $1,650,000 ($349.21/SF)

Situated on one of Berkeley’s most prominent commercial corridors, 1909 University Avenue offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a well-maintained, fully improved asset in the heart of the city. The building spans approximately 4,725 square feet and is positioned within immediate reach of UC Berkeley, Downtown Berkeley, and major transit connections, including BART. This location provides enduring tenant demand, strong pedestrian activity, and exposure from one of the highest-trafficked streets in the city.
The single-story property has undergone significant updates, ensuring long-term operational stability. Seismic retrofitting and a roof replacement approximately eight years ago support structural resilience, while two recently installed HVAC systems deliver energy-efficient climate control. Additional building enhancements include three-phase power, a private sewer lateral, and a flexible interior layout conducive to multiple tenant uses.
With zoning designated as C-DMU Buffer, future ownership has the ability to capitalize on a diverse range of leasing strategies, including retail, office, or service-oriented users. The property’s high-visibility frontage, established connectivity, and adjacency to a thriving business district further underscore its investment appeal. This is an opportunity to secure a well-positioned asset in a market characterized by limited supply and consistent economic vibrancy.
