Property Description
RARE RICHMOND MIXED-USE / LIVE-WORK OPPORTUNITY
A truly unique property offering an exceptional combination of residential, commercial, and workspace potential in one of Richmond’s distinctive transitional neighborhoods. Originally built by the sellers in 1982, this versatile property has been thoughtfully configured to accommodate a variety of living, working, creative, and entrepreneurial uses.
The property features one conforming one-bedroom/one-bath residential unit, plus two additional non-conforming units, each featuring recently remodeled kitchens and bathrooms. The combination provides an uncommon opportunity for an owner-user, multi-generational household, investor, or business seeking integrated residential and workspace capabilities.
The substantial commercial/workspace component is designed for functionality, flexibility, and productivity. Three commercial-style roll-up doors provide excellent access for vehicles, equipment, materials, deliveries, and a wide range of potential workspace configurations. A 400-amp, three-phase electrical service provides significant power capacity, while a high-pressure compressed-air system is distributed throughout the commercial space. An extensive exhaust system with multiple fans, industrial-style lighting, tall ceilings, and abundant skylights create an authentic industrial environment filled with natural light.
An expansive loft area provides additional flexibility for private offices, studio space, creative workspace, or storage, and is complemented by a kitchen/break room and laundry area. The commercial portion of the property also includes two half bathrooms and a full bathroom with shower stall.
Security and access are equally well considered, with a fully fenced perimeter, automatic entry gate, eight parking spaces, and three commercial-style roll-up doors.
At the heart of the property is an inviting, lush courtyard—a surprising oasis within the property's industrial setting and an ideal gathering, entertaining, or break area.
Additional outdoor space is separately fenced and includes a built-out shed, providing even more room for storage, projects, equipment, or outdoor workspace.
Located in a unique section of Richmond characterized by a blend of residential and commercial properties and situated near the Borman Park development, the property offers a distinctive setting with the flexibility that is increasingly difficult to find.
A one-of-a-kind Richmond property offering an unusual blend of residential accommodation, substantial commercial-style workspace, industrial infrastructure, parking, outdoor areas, and future possibilities.

Explore the Neighborhood
Once a center of industry and shipbuilding during World War II, the city of Richmond is focused on revitalization efforts that include a green revolution, with a solar-powered waste treatment plant; industrial printers; metal scrap recyclers; and manufacturers participating in green business initiatives. The city plans to add green jobs, create a cleaner community, and build a thriving tax base that can support better public services.
Richmond homes vary in style, including traditional, Cape Cod, contemporary, and French Country.
Local residents can participate in a composting program that collects food scraps in specially marked street-side containers and offers gardeners free compost for their backyard gardens. Richmond also recycles its old buildings, too; the historic Ford assembly plant near the port of Richmond was converted into the Rosie the Riveter WWII Home Front National Historic Park, operated by the National Park Service.
Downtown is also experiencing revitalization, especially along Macdonald Avenue, the main commercial district that runs from 8th to 16th streets. The Richmond Main Street Initiative brings arts, music, dance, and theater to the area, transforming it into a pedestrian-friendly urban village.
Progressive politics are a part of life in Richmond. The city is the largest in the U.S. to have a Green Party mayor in Gayle McLaughlin.
