Stately historic building on the emblematic Plaza de la Barandilla in the heart of Old San Juan. Boasting approximately 125 feet of prime frontage with the plaza on the corner with San Francisco Street, this property offers unparalleled visibility and access. Strategically located across from Carlos Albizu University and San Francisco parish, stunning views of colonial architecture and the vibrant plaza below abound. This corner property is a rare find within Old San Juan, where most buildings have limited street exposure. Colonial arches and Juliet balconies adorn the building’s charming south-facing façade on Calle San Francisco, while the building’s east-facing façade overlooks the plaza. This property’s grand and unobstructed presence makes it perfectly positioned to capitalize on its location and potential. Featuring two expansive levels with soaring ceilings and 8,879 square feet of interior space, the building’s grand scale reveals a world of possibilities. Its current use as a quick-service restaurant on the first floor and storage on the second floor exemplifies its commercial potential. Yet, the property’s versatility allows for a myriad of transformations - past uses include a residence, house of worship, theater and cinema. Whether you envision a luxurious private residence, a series of upscale apartments, or a sprawling commercial enterprise, this space can accommodate your vision. In addition to its remarkably large interior space, the property has the potential for a rooftop area, as well as a potential garage, which is conveniently accessed from a semi-private side street parallel to the plaza. Embrace the chance to own a piece of history with boundless potential in one of Old San Juan’s most coveted locations. This iconic building stands ready to be reimagined—make it yours today and bring your dream to life!
