121 Cavan Street – Where Industry Meets Opportunity
121 Cavan St, Port Hope, ON L1A 3B8
Listing Price: $3,500,000
Investment Overview
121 Cavan St is a 2.1-acre redevelopment or repositioning opportunity in Port Hope — a growing town just off Highway 401 with a blend of heritage charm and economic momentum. The property features a ±52,000 SF industrial structure with historical use as the Globe File Factory. While the building requires substantial work, it offers a compelling canvas for adaptive reuse as warehousing, light industrial, or storage space.
Alternatively, a visionary redevelopment plan reimagines the site as a modern commercial hub. The conceptual layout includes a 19,000 SF cold storage facility, a 2,900 SF golf simulator, a 3,200 SF café, and a 3,080 SF retail building — supported by 141 surface parking spaces, loading facilities, and pedestrian access to the nearby Ganaraska River parkland and trail system.
The site’s Service Employment zoning supports a wide mix of uses, from industrial and warehousing to service commercial, hospitality, and institutional. 121 Cavan is well-positioned to benefit from Port Hope’s continued growth, infrastructure investment, and increasing demand for functional industrial and mixed-use space.
