2410-2490 Summer Street, Stamford, CT 06905

Rarely does an opportunity emerge to acquire a multi-building commercial asset in one of Fairfield County’s most dynamic and high-demand retail corridors. Presented for sale is a two-building portfolio totaling approximately 16,055 square feet on 0.86 acres along Summer Street in Stamford, Connecticut — a market that continues to attract national retailers and benefit from exceptional demographic strength.

2410 Summer Street is a 2,190 SF freestanding building with a proven, long-standing tenant: IHOP, which has occupied this location since the building was constructed in 1970 — a testament to the site’s enduring commercial viability and consistent customer traffic. This NNN-style income stream provides immediate, stable cash flow from day one of ownership.

2490 Summer Street is a spacious 13,865 SF building, originally built in 1952 and formerly home to a well-established furniture showroom. The building’s mostly open-plan layout offers exceptional flexibility for a wide range of uses including retail, fitness, medical, showroom, home furnishings, or adaptive reuse. The space is currently vacant and ready for a new tenant, presenting an investor or owner-user with a significant value-add opportunity and the ability to drive rental income on their own terms.

Recent additions to the corridor further underscore its momentum, with Shake Shack, Dave’s Hot Chicken, Whole Foods, and DSW among the newest names to plant their flag in the area.
