Positioned along a high-visibility corridor in the heart of Wilmington, 712 N Market St-historically known as the Max Keil Building-offers a rare blend of character and functionality. Originally constructed in the 1850s and reimagined in 1938 with distinctive Art Deco styling, the property even carries a unique past as a colonial-era speakeasy. This three-story, approximately 3,875 SF commercial building features a retail storefront at street level, complemented by upper floors that provide flexible open layouts suitable for office, storage, or creative workspace use. The main level includes built-in wall displays, secure locking cases, a cash wrap, dual display windows at the entrance, as well as a dedicated stock area and private rear office. The second and third floors each offer expansive open space, previously utilized for storage and office purposes, along with convenient half baths on both levels. A full, generously sized basement adds significant additional storage capacity. With a Walk Score of 95, the property benefits from strong foot traffic and proximity to a dense mix of retail, dining, office buildings, and nearby hotels. Accessibility is a key advantage, with close connections to public transit, I-95, and Route 13. An exceptional opportunity to own a piece of Wilmington's commercial corridor with both historic appeal and modern versatility. Schedule your private tour today.
