Executive Summary
Court Appointed Receiver Sale – Prime Mixed-Use Investment Opportunity – 24 E University Ave, Cincinnati, OH 45219
A rare, 100% vacant mixed-use investment opportunity in the heart of Cincinnati's University Heights neighborhood — offering 13,794 SF of space on a 0.153-acre lot, just blocks from the University of Cincinnati campus, Short Vine Entertainment District, Kroger, and UC's Medical Center, College of Medicine, and Children's Hospital.
With the entire building vacant, this is an ideal opportunity for an owner-user, investor, or developer to reposition, lease up, or occupy the space without the constraints of existing tenancies. First Floor: Flexible commercial space with a storefront, dedicated office spaces, and conference rooms — ideal for retail, professional services, or a mix of both. Includes 1 full and 2 half baths, a large storage area, unfinished attic storage, and access to an unfinished basement, all offering excellent potential for finish-out and additional revenue. Second & Third Floors: Six vacant 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartments, ready for lease-up to students, faculty, and medical professionals working near campus and the hospital corridor. Fourth Floor: Largely unfinished, offering the flexibility to build out additional apartments — a compelling value-add opportunity for investors looking to grow the property's income potential.
With full vacancy, unmatched flexibility, and an unbeatable location near one of Cincinnati's largest employment and enrollment hubs, 24 E University offers a rare chance to build income from the ground up in a high-demand corridor.
