Varennes Retail for Lease - Rive-Sud
Welcome to Le 2085, a signature commercial condo development located in the heart of Varennes, on Montreal’s South Shore. Designed with a timeless architectural style blending historical elements and modern details, the building stands out as a landmark in the city’s revitalized downtown core.
Unit 104 is a premium 2,875 sq. ft. corner commercial space featuring 16’6” ceiling height and expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing on two sides, offering outstanding natural light, visibility, and presence on Route Marie-Victorin (Route 132). It includes two (2) indoor parking spaces and offers the possibility to develop a large exterior terrace of over 900 sq. ft., ideal for businesses that benefit from indoor/outdoor customer flow.
This ground floor unit is best suited for a full-service restaurant, wood-fired pizza concept, café-bistro, or specialty retail. However, the zoning is highly permissive, allowing for a broad range of commercial uses including retail, services, food & beverage, and other customer-facing businesses. All uses must be confirmed with the City of Varennes.
The space is currently available for lease, but as it is part of a divided commercial condo development, a purchase option is also available and can be discussed with the owner. The sale price is currently listed at $1,195,000 + taxes, including two indoor parking spaces.
The building includes a curated mix of established professional and service-oriented businesses such as a dental clinic, psychology clinic, veterinary clinic, IT firm, video game development studio, and travel agency. These businesses generate over 20,000 visits annually, offering a strong built-in clientele to any new occupant. The surrounding area also supports a growing residential population, with over 21,600 residents in Varennes and approximately 27,000 within a 10-minute drive. This area is notably underserved in terms of dining options, with only one bring-your-own-wine restaurant nearby, leaving a significant gap in the food service market.
