202 W Whitley Street

About this home

Known locally as the 205, 202 W Whitley Street presents a rare opportunity to acquire a fully improved restaurant and bar property in the heart of Churubusco. The 3,362-square-foot, single-story building has been extensively remodeled and is designed for an operator seeking a shorter path to opening. The current configuration features a custom-built bar, seating for approximately 80 guests, a commercial kitchen, walk-in cooler, men’s and women’s restrooms, private office, employee break room, accessible entrance, and a paved 14-space parking lot. Furniture, fixtures, kitchen equipment, and a three-way liquor license are represented as included in the sale, subject to inventory confirmation and applicable license-transfer approval. While continuing the restaurant and bar operation is the property’s most natural near-term use, its layout and reported General Business zoning create several compelling repositioning opportunities. The combination of an open gathering area, full kitchen, established bar, restrooms, office space, and on-site parking makes the building particularly well suited for a private club, fraternal or service-organization lodge, veterans’ organization, member-based social hall, catering operation, banquet facility, or private-event concept. A coffeehouse, neighborhood tavern, family restaurant, sports bar, specialty food market, or similar hospitality concept could also take advantage of the existing infrastructure. The property previously operated as a medical office, demonstrating its adaptability for a clinic, therapy practice, dental office, accounting firm, insurance agency, professional-services center, or shared-office concept. Other potential uses may include a boutique fitness facility, dance or creative studio, specialty retailer, or showroom. All alternative uses are subject to buyer verification and applicable zoning, licensing, parking, and governmental approvals.
