Business for Sale!

In a market like Wilmington, where property values and commercial lease rates are steadily climbing, locking in a long-term, under-market lease provides a significant hedge against inflation and rising costs. A low lease rate means higher cash flow potential.
Inventory included (~$45,000 value) reduces the initial capital requirement.
Established vendor relationships and goodwill can be transitioned to a new operator.
High-traffic location supports a variety of tenant profiles and business types.
Historic use as a furniture business adds continuity, but there's flexibility to adapt to various other ventures.

Not interested in the furniture business? No problem—this listing offers incredible flexibility and value based on location and lease terms alone.
With over 14,000 square feet, dock doors on both floors, and beautiful exposed wood beams upstairs, the building lends itself to endless possibilities: A creative retail showroom for furniture, art, décor, or locally crafted goods. A flexible event or gallery space, especially upstairs with its architectural charm. A warehouse or logistics center for coastal businesses with shipping needs. A co-working hub, perfect for startups or remote workers. A studio or maker space for photographers, artists, or craftspeople.

The current owners operate the business with a simple, low-overhead model—minimal marketing, no website sales, and a limited flow of inventory (typically only a few pallets at a time). Yet even with this conservative approach, the store continues to generate consistent interest thanks to its prime location and niche appeal.
With fresh energy and strategic investment, the business could scale significantly: Launch an e-commerce storefront to reach customers beyond the local market—especially with the growing demand for affordable office furniture. Market to Wilmington’s booming film industry, which frequently rents or buys office-style furniture for set design and prop staging. Expand into staging services. Grow inventory and diversify offerings. Utilize the spacious upstairs for a true showroom. These are just a few avenues for expansion!
