About This Home
In the Heart of Urbanna – Steps from the Marina Opportunity awaits with this beautifully kept 650 sq ft commercial building that's zoned residential, ideally located just steps from Urbanna’s marina, shops, and restaurants. Built in 1935, the property has been well maintained and combines historic small-town character with modern business potential—making it a rare find in this desirable waterfront community. The building features cedar impression siding, a durable metal gable roof, two rooms, and a half bath. Public water and sewer are in place, ensuring easy operation and flexibility for future uses. The compact 0.018-acre lot (784 sq ft) is low-maintenance while offering prime visibility in one of Urbanna’s most walkable areas. Currently, the property is divided into two businesses: one half is an established hair salon, while the other half operates as a boutique selling clothes and jewelry. The salon can be taken over as a turnkey business, giving a buyer immediate income opportunity, while the boutique provides rental income or could be repurposed for salon space, an office, or another retail concept. Existing signage ensures visibility, especially valuable during town events such as Urbanna’s Oyster Festival. The Hairport salon business and equipment may also be purchased separately from the sale of the building, creating an excellent option for a buyer who wishes to step directly into ownership with minimal setup. The possibilities extend beyond current use. This space could serve as a boutique, café, art gallery, office, or studio—or potentially be transformed into a unique short-term rental getaway (subject to approvals). Its location, steps from the marina and within walking distance to dining, shopping, and waterfront activities, makes this property a true gem. Whether you’re seeking a turnkey business, a smart investment, or a space to bring your vision to life, 35 Watling Street offers endless potential in one of Virginia’s most charming waterfront towns.
