Property Description
Set on nearly 4.5 acres at the high-traffic corner of Glendale Avenue and Merritt Street, the site impresses with over 300 parking spaces, manicured landscaping, and outstanding curb appeal. The building's remarkable adaptive reuse showcases timeless architecture alongside exceptional functionality — from hotel suites and a grand ballroom to restaurant, retail, and office uses. The result is a one-of-a-kind landmark commercial destination and a cornerstone investment.
For those seeking growth, the property comes with site plan approval for a 5-storey, 170,000+ sq ft expansion, with infrastructure already in place to support the build-out on top of the existing structure to the north of the hotel. This presents extraordinary upside above the pro forma 6%+ cap rate, whether for a hands-on investor looking to add value or a portfolio owner seeking a flagship asset with future development capacity.
The location is second to none — in the heart of a thriving commercial corridor surrounded by RBC, Sobeys, Canadian Tire, The Keg and more. Situated next door to the new Merritton Mills development, the site benefits from strong built-in demand and an expanding customer base. Only 500 metres to Highway 406 and minutes to the QEW and Highway 405, the property offers effortless connectivity across Niagara, Hamilton, and the Greater Toronto Area.
This is a truly exceptional opportunity; whether as a generational cornerstone for an active investor or as a marquee addition to an established portfolio. NOTE: Sale is for real property only
