23341 Frederick Rd
Commercial Property with Potential Live/Work Configuration
Marketing description
A rare opportunity to own a landmark commercial property in the heart of Historic Clarksburg. Located directly on Frederick Road (MD Route 355), this beautifully restored circa-1900 building combines timeless architectural character with exceptional flexibility for today's entrepreneur, investor, or owner-user. The property contains approximately 2,868 square feet on two levels and enjoys outstanding visibility along one of Montgomery County's most traveled commuter corridors. The first floor offers an open and inviting space filled with natural light, highlighted by original hardwood floors, decorative pressed-tin ceilings, exposed brick walls, and large picture windows. With plumbing lines and electrical drops roughed in to accommodate touches, the main level presents the perfect canvas for a boutique retail shop, café, bakery, tasting room, wellness studio, creative office, gallery, showroom, or other specialty business. Public water and sewer service the property, and a commercial three-basin sink is already in place, creating an excellent foundation for food-service-related uses. A convenient half bath serves the main level. A rear stairwell leads to the second floor, where you'll find four separate rooms, a beautifully updated full bathroom, and additional space that could easily accommodate a kitchen, break room, executive offices, private meeting rooms, or residential-style living quarters. The layout presents an attractive opportunity for a live/work configuration, allowing owners to operate their business downstairs while maintaining private space above. The building sits on approximately 0.14 acres within Clarksburg's historic commercial corridor and benefits from excellent commuter exposure along Route 355 with convenient access to I-270, Frederick, Germantown, Clarksburg Town Center, and the greater Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Clarksburg continues to experience significant residential and commercial growth while preserving the charm and character of its historic downtown district. Traffic counts along nearby portions of the corridor exceed 10,000 vehicles per day, providing strong visibility for customer-facing businesses. Properties offering this combination of history, character, visibility, and future potential are increasingly difficult to find. Bring your vision and transform this iconic Clarksburg building into something truly special.
