225 7th St Parkersburg, WV 26101

Located in the heart of downtown Parkersburg by the corner of Market Street and 7th Street, this truly distinctive circa-1900 property offers an exceptional live/work or income-producing opportunity. Widely considered one of the most unique buildings downtown, it is the only property in the area featuring rooftop access from the top floor (5th floor)-with sweeping views of the Ohio River, city skyline, bridge, and more. The ground level is configured for a restaurant operation and includes a full basement with additional utility and storage space (including a bathroom, bedroom, multiple sinks, grease trap, and storage). The main level features a dine-in area (approx. 16 seats) and a kitchen with restroom. The kitchen is equipped with an operating hood and a fully certified Ansul fire suppression system suitable for open-flame cooking, offering a strong foundation for a variety of food concepts. This location has been home to well-loved local favorites, including Gyro King and The W. Above the commercial space is a remarkable three-story apartment spanning the upper levels. The apartment's entry level (2nd floor of the building) features a beautifully designed kitchen with island, solid wood cabinetry, wine cooler, stove, refrigerator, a half bath, and a dining area. The next level includes a spacious bedroom suite with a large walk-in closet and a full bath. A standout detail: the bedroom floors are real hardwood and feature a hand-painted compass, preserved in its original character-part of a story that has been passed down through generations. The top level (5th floor) offers a bright sunroom and direct access to the rooftop-perfect for enjoying river views, downtown life, and even an ideal vantage point for local fireworks. The property has been meticulously maintained by its long-time owner (approx. 10 years). Previously leased, the apartment generated approximately $1,000/month and the commercial space approximately $920/month when occupied. Both spaces are now vacant, offering a clean slate for an investor, an owner-operator, or someone seeking an unforgettable downtown lifestyle. Showing requirements: Proof of funds required prior to scheduling. Minimum 24-hour notice required. Furniture may stay with the property at no additional cost.
