A top-tier, modern commercial kitchen fully outfitted, including a walk-in refrigerator and two distinct interior dining spaces (seats 58 in Clapp Saloon & 28 in Annex bar), is turnkey. The waterfront plaza, boasts the largest footprint of any private commercial enterprise in downtown Port Townsend (seats 178), room for live entertainment. Special event space? The two upper stories are primed for finishing into residential spaces, customizable as 2 grand suites or 4 high-end apartments. Expansion potential: the included plaza parcel presents a blank canvas for structural development, opening options for additional multi-family housing and/or retail spaces. This exceptional property allows for highly sought-after commercial and mixed-use potential. 2020 Recipient of the Mary Johnson Historic Preservation award.
