This exceptional 132,966 square foot shopping center in Bloomington, IL, presents a compelling value-add opportunity. Anchored by Schnucks Markets, a regional grocer with a long-term lease (extending to 05/31/2035), the center boasts a diverse tenant mix including Barnes & Noble, UPS Store, and several other national brands. Tenants occupy 15 units, generating a strong net operating income (NOI) of $1,110,477, representing an 8.0% cap rate on the $13,880,000 asking price. The property features 700 parking spaces and sits on a 12.66-acre lot at a high-traffic intersection (over 61,000 vehicles daily). Built in 1971, the center benefits from a recently renovated roof (29,200 sq ft under a 10-year warranty until December 2027), and includes 8,251 square feet of vacant space offering significant upside potential. The property's strategic location near Eastland Mall, State Farm's corporate headquarters (15,000 employees), and Illinois State University (20,600 students) ensures a robust customer base within a densely populated area (129,705 people within five miles). Lease commencement dates back to September 1, 1989, with rent bumps included in the lease agreements. The property's APN is 21-02-201-012-0000. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a well-positioned, grocery-anchored retail center with substantial growth potential.
