About this home
BOOMING Camden Business District - GREAT opportunity for SAVVY INVESTOR!!!
This approximately 3,000 sq ft mixed-use brick building is ideally situated in the heart of Camden’s business district, directly adjacent to Rutgers University–Camden and within walking distance of City Hall, Cooper Street Station (PATCO), and the Camden waterfront. The structure stands on a great lot with high visibility and foot traffic, making it suitable for either commercial or residential redevelopment.
Exterior Features
Traditional red-brick façade with large street-facing windows, perfect for retail or gallery use on the ground floor.
The building is three stories with a basement and rooftop access.
Rear alley or lot access may offer room for off-street parking or private entrance development.
The architecture is consistent with early 20th-century Camden style—simple cornices, wide lintels, and decorative brickwork.
Interior Configuration
The interior is currently laid out with commercial space on the ground floor (possibly a former office or storefront), while the upper floor has partitioned rooms suitable for office use or conversion to residential units.
The high ceilings (10-12 feet), floors, and large windows provide ample natural light and character, lending themselves well to loft-style apartments or live-work spaces.
The basement spans a decent footprint—usable for storage, mechanicals or any upgrades easy interior access.
Zoning and Conversion Potential
The property likely falls under Camden’s Central Business District zoning, which often allows for mixed-use development, including residential over commercial or full residential with the right variances.
Proximity to Rutgers, Cooper Medical School, and the transit hub enhances rental demand, especially for students, faculty, and medical professionals.
Potential to convert into:
Two to four residential units, depending on layout and approvals
Live-work studios or micro-apartments catering to students or remote workers
Owner-occupied unit with ground-floor commercial space (e.g., café, boutique)
