Discover a standout commercial opportunity in the heart of the White Lake Area, one of West Michigan's most inviting lakeshore communities! **Seller financing, land contract or other creative purchase arrangements may be considered for qualified buyers with a substantial down payment. Terms are negotiable and subject to seller approval.** This is an exciting opportunity for restaurant operators, hospitality entrepreneurs and investors seeking alternatives to conventional commercial financing. Just a block from White Lake and minutes from Lake Michigan beaches, this approximately 4,000-square-foot property combines a highly visible downtown location with an extensively renovated restaurant, bar and event setting ready for a new owner's vision. Located in downtown Montague, the property sits within the White Lake Area alongside neighboring Whitehall and offers the character of a true West Michigan lakeshore town. Behind the building's original brick-and-block exterior is a substantially transformed interior. Beginning in 2024, the interior was completely renovated and reconfigured for its current restaurant and hospitality use, resulting in a modern commercial kitchen, built-in bar, dining areas and updated finishes. The investment continued in 2026 with completion of the dedicated event area, featuring new flooring, finished walls and ceiling. The result is the character of an established downtown masonry building paired with a recently rebuilt interior designed for today's restaurant, hospitality and event use. The property is exceptionally well equipped. The commercial kitchen includes extensive cooking, refrigeration, preparation and ventilation equipment, including specialty pizza equipment, commercial hood and fire-suppression components. The built-in bar, restaurant furnishings, event furnishings and substantial additional furniture, fixtures and equipment create a compelling opportunity to establish a new concept in an already developed hospitality setting. A detailed equipment and inclusions list is available through the listing agents. Flexible indoor capacity totals 99. The restaurant accommodates 50 guests, including 10 seats at the built-in bar, while the separate event area can accommodate up to 49 guests. The event area may also provide flexibility for expanded restaurant seating when desired. Three public restrooms include accessible facilities, and one restroom also features a shower. One of the property's most distinctive features is its direct connection to Weathervane Lane. A large access/garage door from the event area opens directly onto this pedestrian alleyway, while a whimsical exterior mural adds character to the Weathervane Lane side of the building. Weathervane Lane is the heart of Montague's Social District, an outdoor gathering space that brings activity into the center of downtown. This direct connection creates exciting possibilities for a future operator to explore an even greater relationship between the property, dining, events and downtown entertainment, subject to applicable approvals and licensing. The building also enjoys strong visibility along busy Water Street. Approximately 10 on-site parking spaces are available, with ample additional city and public parking nearby for restaurant, event and downtown visitors. White Lake is just a block away, with boating, marinas, camping, waterfront recreation and nearby Lake Michigan beaches all contributing to the area's year-round character and strong seasonal draw. Directly across the street stands Montague's iconic World's Largest Weathervane, one of the community's most recognizable landmarks. The Montague Farmers Market and Artisan Market Village add activity nearby, while Montague serves as the southern gateway to the approximately 22-mile Hart-Montague Trail, a popular paved destination for biking, walking and recreation. During the warmer months, the White Lake Area truly comes alive. Free summer concerts, Maritime Festival, the Cruz'In Classic Car Parade & Show, farmers and artisan markets, live music and community celebrations bring residents and visitors into the downtown area throughout the season. Regional attractions including Michigan's Adventure, Lewis Adventure Farm & Zoo and Double JJ Resort add to the visitor traffic throughout this part of West Michigan. For a restaurant, hospitality, event or entertainment operator, the combination is difficult to duplicate: an extensively renovated interior, modern commercial kitchen, built-in bar, flexible event space, direct connection to a downtown Social District, high visibility, nearby public parking and the recreational and tourism appeal of the West Michigan lakeshore. The property is being offered as commercial real estate together with agreed furniture, fixtures and equipment. This is not the sale of the existing Stoney Ridge operating business, allowing a purchaser to create and establish their own restaurant, hospitality or entertainment identity. Existing alcohol licenses do not convey. Stoney Ridge Vineyards & Winery, whose wines have been served at the property, was named 2026 Winery of the Year in the Taste Michigan Governor's Cup Competition. A new operator may have the opportunity to separately negotiate a wholesale relationship to continue carrying Stoney Ridge wines as part of their own concept, subject to mutual agreement and all required licensing. Certain Stoney Ridge-branded wine-service items may also be negotiable in connection with such an arrangement. **FLEXIBLE FINANCING OPPORTUNITY!** The motivated seller is willing to consider seller financing, land contract or other creative purchase arrangements for qualified buyers with a substantial down payment. Financing terms, interest rates, amortization schedules and potential balloon payments may be negotiated based on buyer qualifications and seller approval. Bring your proposal and let's explore the possibilities! Bring your vision to the White Lake Area and become part of a growing West Michigan lakeshore destination where downtown energy, recreation, tourism and small-town character come together. **MOTIVATED SELLER!
