Property Description
Radcliffe Mill presents an exceptional opportunity for a savvy investor looking for value and a one-of-a-kind investment with endless possibilities. Since its major restoration in 2007, and further transformation in 2017, the property has operated as a mixed-use space. The Mill building features four floors of office space and a 70+ seat restaurant. The Annex/Seed House houses a wellness center, complete with a café, wellness-related offices, and a spectacular studio. Additionally, there is an undeveloped Grain Elevator, parking for 65 vehicles, and a dedicated loading dock for the restaurant. Having played a significant role in Kent County’s agricultural landscape since 1694, Radcliffe Mill underwent a historic restoration in 2007, transforming it into its current use with over 16,000 square feet of finished space. The centerpiece is the four-story mill building, dating back to 1891. The restoration seamlessly blended modern amenities like an elevator, sprinkler system and HVAC systems, with original features such as exposed beams and reclaimed flooring. While currently configured as office space across four floors, the property's zoning permits various uses, including conversion to apartments. Café Sado, a local sushi restaurant, is also housed within the mill building. All of the major restaurant equipment is included in the sale. The Annex dates back to the early 1900s and The Seed House to the 1970s. Today, the blended building features soaring ceilings, exposed woodwork, and meticulously restored standing end 2x4 flooring. Presently, the building accommodates a diverse range of wellness practitioners, with the studio space and café awaiting the creative touch of a new occupant. The sale includes all café equipment, including refrigerators, freezer, ice maker, keg tap, a warming oven and more. Four of The Seed Offices are on the ground floor, with a fourth office on the second floor, along with additional storage and laundry facilities. Finally, there is an unfinished Grain Elevator, awaiting the creativity of a new buyer. Radcliffe Mill is on the National Register of Historic Places (see documents), and having previously received historic preservation tax credits a new owner could benefit from a shorter process for further property development and improvement tax credits. The property is also in a Maryland Enterprise Zone, and an Opportunity Zone and eligible for energy improvement incentive programs. Radcliffe Mill is strategically located one-mile from downtown Chestertown, a short walk along the rail trail, which used to run directly to the grain elevator. Founded in 1706 on the banks of the Chester River, Chestertown is home to Washington College. Located approximately 80 miles from Washington, DC and Philadelphia, PA and an hour from Wilmington, DE, Chestertown hosts a number of vibrant festivals throughout the year and an active arts and entertainment district.

HUD Foreclosures

HUD foreclosures and VA Foreclosures are some of the best homes to buy when price is part of the equation. As with most Americans, price is always a concern. If not buying the same house for less, why not buy more house for the same dollar invested? When looking for a good deal it is hard to do better than the VA or HUD foreclosures market. The simple truth is that there are just more VA and HUD homes on the market, as they represent such a large number of mortgages that are generated each year. This translates into more foreclosures just by the magnitude of difference between all others comparing to the two largest. The two largest also being government owned and operated means that they have less time to wait to make money back on the home. The FHA is especially known for selling HUD homes for less than the average sales price in a given area. FHA foreclosures represent a fraction of HUD but they are still a significant number of homes and both should be considered. VA (Veterans Administration) and HUD (Housing and Urban Development) have different and unique opportunities for the buyer. Both are often forgiven for the local taxes normally associated with the purchase of a home (this is on a county by county basis). Be sure to ask the local title company or escrow company to look into it for you before closing as this is often missed due to their are not used to dealing with the 2 to 3 percent of the market that VA and HUD foreclosures represent.

Foreclosure Listings Increasing

As the market settled after the mortgage meltdown foreclosure listings also settled and fewer homes were on the market with a placard reading “Bank Foreclosure” in big red lettering. This was a good thing for the entire real estate market. Having an abundance of foreclosures brings the entire market down and it makes it harder for home owners, who would like to move, to get the appropriate price for their home as a similar home down the same street was sold for substantially less and the appraiser is using the foreclosure as a comparable sale. This is just one of the problems when there are too many foreclosure listings in any area. Another issue is the television set that sits in everyone’s living room harping about the price of homes based on the number of foreclosures and this constant barrage of negative information makes most people sit on the sidelines waiting for the market to either implode completely or to correct itself. Meanwhile while they wait, others are buying foreclosure listings and making great investments. Whatever the reason, a market can only handle so many foreclosure listings at any given time. The more foreclosures, the lower the market gets and this is a lesson the banks that were foreclosing and selling off realized too late. The market and their investments would have been better off if there had not been a rush to divest themselves of the toxic assets made more toxic by their own actions.
