Turnkey Retail / Office Opportunity in Lincoln Square
±840 Rentable SF | Asking $24.00/SF/YR | Fully Built Out | Move-In Ready

Position your business in one of Chicago’s most established and sought-after North Side neighborhoods at 1911 W. Foster Avenue. Located in Lincoln Square, this 840-square-foot commercial space presents a unique opportunity for a small business, professional office, boutique retailer, service provider, or entrepreneurial concept seeking a high-quality, fully built-out space without the time and expense associated with a major renovation or new construction build-out.

The space has been renovated, is in excellent condition, and is ready for immediate tenant occupancy, making it an attractive option for businesses looking to open quickly and efficiently. At just ±840 rentable square feet, the suite offers a manageable footprint that allows an operator to maintain a professional physical location while controlling occupancy costs—a particularly compelling opportunity for businesses that do not require a large storefront or traditional office environment.

The efficient size and turnkey condition make the space well-suited for a variety of potential concepts, including professional services, consulting, accounting, insurance, financial services, real estate, creative firms, boutique retail, wellness concepts, personal services, appointment-based businesses, and other neighborhood-serving commercial uses, subject to applicable zoning and licensing requirements.

Offered at an asking rental rate of $24.00 per square foot per year, 1911 W. Foster Avenue provides prospective tenants with the opportunity to establish a presence in the broader Lincoln Square/Ravenswood trade area, surrounded by a dense mix of residential neighborhoods, independently owned businesses, restaurants, retailers, and service-oriented establishments.

The property’s Foster Avenue location also provides convenient connectivity throughout Chicago’s North Side. The immediate area is served by the CTA #92 Foster and #50 Damen bus routes, while additional rail connectivity is available via the CTA Brown Line and Metra UP-N Ravenswood station in the surrounding area. The nearby Foster and Winchester area is considered highly walkable, with Walk Score reporting a score of 92 for that intersection.

For an entrepreneur or established operator looking to minimize upfront capital expenditures and accelerate the timeline to opening, 1911 W. Foster Avenue offers a compelling combination of location, condition, affordability, and operational efficiency.

The space is fully built out and move-in ready—allowing the next tenant to focus less on construction and more on opening their doors and growing their business.
