Retail Property For Sale

Located in downtown Bowling Green, Kentucky, 819 Church Street presents a unique mixed-use investment opportunity combining an established hospitality business with an income-producing residential component.

The sale includes bar equipment, furnishings, fixtures, inventory, and liquor licenses required for continued operation, allowing a buyer to assume operations with minimal disruption.
The property's downtown setting places it within one of Bowling Green's most active commercial districts, surrounded by restaurants, entertainment venues, local businesses, and government offices that contribute to consistent pedestrian activity.

A significant component of the offering is the fully furnished residential apartment located on the second floor. Featuring three bedrooms and one bathroom, the apartment is currently utilized as a successful Airbnb operation, creating an additional revenue stream beyond the bar business. This combination of commercial and residential income potential offers investors and owner-operators operational flexibility while reducing reliance on a single source of revenue.
With a historic identity, established business operations, furnished residential accommodations, and a central downtown location, 819 Church Street offers the opportunity to acquire a recognizable local business together with an active short-term rental component in one transaction.
