240 Highland Ave, Cheshire, CT - Real Estate – For Sale/For Lease/Ground Lease - Description
NAI Signature Group is pleased to present This 0.97-acre lot in Cheshire, Connecticut. The lot is current improved with a home and studio built originally in 1926. The land is likely to have an alternate highest and best use thus the business strategy for a buyer may be to buy for build-to-suit development or hold for investment.
The site is located on the east side of Highland Avenue (CT Route 10) and on the south side of East Mitchell Avenue, across from the Super Stop & Shop anchored shopping center. The shopping center tenancies include: Super Stop & Shop, Super Stop & Shop Pharmacy, Marshalls, Subway, Yougu Hibachi & Sushi Lounge, Bank of America, Consignment America, Jenny K Cleaners, Mr. B’s Pizza, Webster Bank. The area is also a banking node with Wells Fargo, Liberty Bank, Webster Bank, Bank of America and Ion Bank.
Lease options “as is” may include photography, artisans, jewelry and wedding related businesses. As a redevelopment, the use range is wide for new construction likely permitting one of the following: medical office, urgent care, general office, bank, residential, mixed- use and other. Select uses may require a variance or zoning change to be permitted such as sit-down restaurants and drive-through restaurants.
The property is offered for sale, ground lease or lease on a build-to-suit basis. The property is available for adaptive re-use or more likely redevelopment.
The property is located on Highland Avenue (CT Route 10). CT Route 10 extends north to an interchange with CT Route 691, at a distance of approximately 3.60 miles. CT Route 10 extends south to an interchange with CT Route 40, at a distance of approximately 7.25 miles. CT Route 691 is a limited access highway that has an interchange with Interstate 84 approximately 1.2 miles to the west and Interstate 91 approximately 6.6 miles to the east. At the southern point, CT Route 40 connects with Interstate 91 approximately 2.5 miles to the east. CT Route 10 extends a further 1.5 miles where it intersects with CT Route 15. Surrounding development consists of a wide range of uses including retail shopping centers, banks, residential, restaurants, institutional, educational uses, residential and more.
The 0.97-acre site has approximately 90 feet of frontage along Highland Avenue and an average depth of 400 feet along East Mitchell Avenue. The is one existing curb-cut on East Mitchell Avenue. As of this writing, there are no plans for an additional point of access from this site onto Highland Avenue (CT Route 10) which would require State of Connecticut Department of Transportation approval. Plans do call for a potential second point of access on East Mitchell Avenue, a Town road.
The subject site is conceptually to link to the two parcels to the south to East Mitchell Avenue where all three parcels would benefit from cross-easement and shared access. The south two parcels are planned for a national credit tenant, a financial institution. The sites at 202 and 216 Highland Avenue are to share common access to the existing signalized intersection at 202 Highland Avenue, which also shared by the Super Stop and Shop retail center. If improved with cross access and mutual easements, traffic is to flow through from the Super Stop and Shop signal through the financial institution’s parking lot and onto the subject property and then to East Mitchell Avenue. This flow of traffic is a goal of the Town leaders, but not a requirement.
