Recently built in 2022, this modern beverage shop features over $120K in equipment and buildout and is offered at just $55,000 — well below replacement cost.

Located along South Wadsworth Blvd in Lakewood, one of the city’s busiest retail corridors with over 47,000 vehicles daily, the business benefits from high visibility, strong co-tenancy, and dense residential and daytime employment nearby.
