Inside the home
This is a mixed-use income property on King Street in Burford — a commercial ground-floor unit currently operating as an ice cream shop, plus three residential apartments above and behind it. The business is not included, but the zoning (HA-C4) supports retail, restaurant, office, and other uses, so the commercial space has flexibility once tenancy changes. The residential units vary widely in condition. One apartment has been updated with laminate flooring and a functional modern layout. The other two are in original shape — dated kitchens, basic bathrooms, acoustic tile ceilings — and would benefit from renovation to hold or increase rents. Common hallways are in poor shape. The exterior needs real attention: the wood storefront cladding is weathered, the canopy is aged, and the rear deck shows significant wear. Buyers should budget for exterior work alongside any interior updates. Four hydro meters are already in place.

Offering approximately 4,000 square feet of above-grade space, this well-positioned mixed-use property features a prominent main-floor commercial unit zoned HA-C4 (Hamlet Core Commercial) - supporting a wide range of permitted uses, including retail, restaurant, café, professional office, personal services, bakery, studio space, and more. The commercial unit is just under 1,000 square feet and is currently home to an established ice cream shop, providing stable tenancy and strong visibility along King Street (note business is not for sale). The residential component includes three large 2-bedroom apartments, all fully rented, delivering consistent income from day one. The building also features a main-floor common laundry room plus basement storage and utilities. Four hydro meters are in place, offering the potential to configure separate metering for each unit, providing flexibility for future expense allocation.

Quick access to Highway 403 allows convenient commuting to Brantford, Cambridge, and Hamilton, supporting strong rental demand and long-term growth potential. With established tenants, flexible HA-C4 zoning, multiple income streams, and downtown exposure, this is a rare opportunity to secure a stabilized mixed-use asset in one of Brant County's charming core communities. Position yourself in Burford's main street corridor - opportunities like this don't come along often.
