"Equipped - Recently Remodeled - 80 Seats + Fenced-In Patio - 40 Parking Spaces - On Rand Rd (Route 120) With 22,000 VPD"

Rare opportunity to lease a built-out and equipped freestanding restaurant along heavily traveled Route 120 in the growing Lakemoor/McHenry County market.

Skip the substantial time, cost and uncertainty associated with converting raw retail space into a restaurant! This 5,200 sqft freestanding restaurant is already configured for foodservice use and offers an existing commercial kitchen with a large exhaust hood & walk-in cooler, dining room furniture, fenced-in patio, prominent signage and 40 parking spaces.

The property is immediately available for a new tenant, creating an outstanding opportunity for an experienced independent operator, growing restaurant group or established concept looking to enter or expand within the northwest suburban market.

Property Highlights:
- 5,200 sqft freestanding restaurant
- On 0.74 acres
- Highly visible location on Rand Rd (Route 120)
- Commercial zoning
- Interior beautifully remodeled in 2023
- 80 indoor seats (multiple dining areas)
- Fenced-in patio providing additional seating
- 40 parking spaces
- Existing illuminated pylon signage
- Established restaurant location with 4 decades of foodservice history
- Can add liquor & video gaming
- Recently operated as Lakemoor Diner
- Previously home to the well-known Le Vichyssois - operated at the location for 38 years
- Existing landlord-owned restaurant equipment is available for tenant's use
- Landlord is willing to paint the building exterior in the tenant's choice of color, providing a new operator the opportunity to create its own identity

One of the property's greatest advantages is its existing restaurant infrastructure. Rather than starting with an empty commercial shell and investing heavily in kitchen improvements, ventilation, refrigeration, plumbing, dining furniture and related restaurant infrastructure, a new tenant can capitalize on an already established foodservice facility.

Existing FF&E:
- 12ft commercial hood w/Ansul fire-suppression system
- Double-stack convection oven
- 2-door tabletop cooler
- 3-door/2-drawer cooler
- Walk-in cooler
- Stainless-steel prep tables
- Vegetable/prep sink
- 3-compartment sink
- Dining tables & chairs
- Existing restaurant fixtures & infrastructure

For a restaurant operator comparing this opportunity with constructing a new restaurant from raw retail space, the combination of an existing commercial kitchen, hood system, refrigeration, dining area, furniture, patio, parking and signage can represent significant potential savings in both startup capital and opening time.

Bring your concept here!

Prime retail space in a one-story freestanding restaurant building. Boasts great signage, high visibility, ample parking and heavy vehicle traffic.

Strategically positioned along Rand Rd (Route 120) in Lakemoor, the property benefits from exposure to one of the area's principal E-W commercial corridors.

Route 120 connects the property with surrounding communities including McHenry, Volo, Fox Lake, Wauconda, Round Lake and the greater Chain O'Lakes area, creating the potential to draw customers from well beyond Lakemoor itself.

The property is just 2 miles west of the major Route 120 & Route 12 commercial intersection, one of the area's primary retail nodes. That intersection has grown substantially with major retail/restaurant development anchored by Woodman's Food Market and an expanding collection of national/regional concepts.

Plus, Lakemoor continues to actively encourage commercial development along Route 120, with the Village identifying the corridor as an important commercial & development area serving a growing northwest suburban population.
