Home Details

215 W Clay Street Landmark Corner Property in Richmonds Arts District In the heart of Richmonds Arts District, this iconic brick corner building captures the perfect balance of historic character and modern versatility. With three fully finished levels totaling over 3,800 sq ft, its a rare opportunity to own a property that combines business potential, residential comfort, and architectural charm. The main level is currently built out as a turnkey coffee shop, complete with two bars, multiple hand-wash sinks, a 3-compartment sink, and a mop sink fully plumbed and ready for operation. Large storefront windows bathe the space in natural light, while its corner exposure ensures maximum visibility. Facing a public park, it benefits from city-approved outdoor seating, creating the ideal setting for a caf, boutique, gallery, or creative studio. Upstairs, a beautifully designed 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment offers sophistication and comfort. The space comes fully furnished and is currently operated as a profitable Airbnb with excellent occupancy. Design highlights include mid-century style furnishings, hardwood floors, tall windows, and unique custom woodwork throughout. The kitchen features vintage-style appliances, a built-in banquette, and charming tile finishes. Each bedroom offers serene natural light and character, while both bathrooms feature walk-in showers and modern details. The apartment can be connected to the main level for an elegant live/work layout. The finished basement adds even more flexibility with a large main room, two lockable offices, a workshop/storage area with industrial sink, and a full bathroom. Independently climate-controlled, this level can easily serve as an extension of the apartment, an artists studio, or even a separate rental or workspace. Located within walking distance of galleries, cafs, and restaurants, 215 W Clay Street sits at the center of Richmonds creative and cultural revival. New businesses are opening monthly, adding to the neighborhoods energy and value growth. With minimal modifications, this building can adapt to any vision live, work, rent, or create while offering the long-term appreciation and prestige that come with owning one of the most recognizable properties in the Arts District.
