About This Home

Once home to Mechanics Savings Bank and later Southern Aid Insurance Company around the turn of the 20th century, 212 E Clay St is a special building filled with history and expert craftsmanship. And that craftsmanship and attention to detail spills over into unit B1! Stroll downstairs where you’ll find an exceptional renovation that’s unlike any condo you’ve likely seen in RVA. Completed just a few years ago, you’ll enjoy new hardwood floors throughout the living room, kitchen, and bedroom. Inside you’ll note the custom trim package including crown molding that runs the length of the main living area and into the kitchen. And there you’ll enjoy 42” upper cabinets, soft-close/dovetail features, a huge peninsula with pendant lights, granite counters, tile backsplash, and SS appliances! The bedroom sits just off the kitchen and offers picture and chair rail trim and more crown molding. Recessed lighting, a double closet and in-bedroom laundry closet complete the bedroom. A stunning bathroom sits just steps away with tile floors, a marble top vanity, on-trend lighting, and a tub/shower with tile surround and niche. There are two entrances - one from inside the building and one from the rear parking area. You’re across the street from the Greater Richmond Convention Center and steps from ML Steak Modern Chophouse, Lillie Pearl, Kogi, and numerous other restaurants and shops!
