Executive Summary

215 W Clay Street – Landmark Corner Property in Richmond’s Arts District
In the heart of Richmond’s Arts District, this iconic brick corner building strikes the perfect balance between historic charm and modern versatility. With three fully finished levels totaling over 3,800 sq ft, it presents a rare opportunity to own a property that blends business potential, residential comfort, and architectural allure.
The main level is currently set up as a turnkey coffee shop, featuring two bars, multiple hand-wash sinks, a 3-compartment sink, and a mop sink — fully plumbed and ready for operation. Large storefront windows flood the space with natural light, while its corner location ensures maximum visibility. Facing a public park, it benefits from city-approved outdoor seating, making it ideal for a café, boutique, gallery, or creative studio.
Upstairs, a beautifully designed 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment offers sophistication and comfort. The space is fully furnished and currently operates 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 is bathed in 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 an industrial sink, and a full bathroom. Independently climate-controlled, this level can easily serve as an extension of the apartment, an artist’s studio, or even a separate rental or workspace.
Located within walking distance of galleries, cafés, and restaurants, 215 W Clay Street is at the center of Richmond’s creative and cultural revival. New businesses are opening monthly, contributing to the neighborhood’s 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.
