Clarkston, Michigan, is a small historic city in Oakland County known for its charming downtown and strategic position within the Detroit metro area. The local commercial real estate market is modest but well-situated, featuring roughly 300,000 square feet of space across retail, office, and industrial uses, with approximately 160,000 square feet dedicated to retail. Much of the city’s commercial and quick-service restaurant (QSR) activity is concentrated along major corridors such as Dixie Highway and near the I-75 interchange, which offer strong visibility and high traffic counts. Key retail and QSR sites include properties like Clarkston Square, a 12,400-square-foot retail strip center on Clarkston Road near Sashabaw Road, and a 4.27-acre commercial parcel on Dixie Highway zoned C-2, ideal for drive-through, restaurant, or auto-related uses. Overall, Clarkston’s commercial landscape supports small to mid-sized retailers and QSR operators seeking a growing suburban market with easy highway access, strong community character, and steady consumer traffic, though limited inventory can create competition and upward pressure on pricing.This build-to-suit asset features 1,219 square feet of leasable space situated on a 0.81-acre lot. The lease is secured by a brand-new 10-year primary term with two additional 5-year renewal options. Structured as a modified NNN lease, landlord responsibilities are minimal and limited to roof, structure, and capital replacement items. The lease also includes $12,000 rental increases at each renewal option, providing a built-in hedge against inflation. The tenant, Happy Sprinkles LLC, is operated by two BIGGBY Coffee Area Representatives who provide a personal guarantee on the lease. As Area Representatives, they serve as regional leaders responsible for expanding the brand, recruiting new franchisees, and supporting existing operators, offering both operational expertise and long-term stability. This offering represents an excellent opportunity for investors seeking passive, long-term income backed by an experienced operator in a prime location just off Interstate 75.
