23 Clara Drive presents a unique opportunity to lease professionally positioned office, medical, and flex space in the heart of Mystic, Connecticut—one of Southeastern Connecticut’s most desirable and recognizable locations.
This 45,576 square foot commercial building is currently undergoing a thoughtful repositioning under new ownership by Mystic Aquarium, with property management handled by READCO. The goal is to create a well-balanced tenant mix that supports medical, wellness, professional office, and service-oriented users, while enhancing the long-term stability and value of the asset.
The property offers a range of available suite sizes from approximately 1,300 square feet to over 7,800 square feet, allowing for flexibility across a wide variety of users. Existing layouts lend themselves particularly well to medical, behavioral health, therapy, counseling, and office-based operations, with many suites already configured with multiple private rooms, waiting areas, and support spaces.
Located just minutes from Mystic Seaport, Olde Mistick Village, and downtown Mystic, the property benefits from strong visibility, accessibility, and proximity to a mix of year-round residents, seasonal visitors, and major regional employers. This positioning supports both consistent daily traffic and long-term tenant demand.
The building is situated within the TC-80 (Tourist Commercial) Zone, which allows for a broad range of commercial uses including office, medical, retail, and service-based businesses. This zoning flexibility makes the property particularly attractive for tenants seeking adaptability in both current use and future growth.
From a leasing perspective, ownership is exploring both modified gross and NNN lease structures depending on tenant requirements. As part of this process, there is a strong emphasis on transparency around operating expenses so that tenants can clearly understand and project their total occupancy costs. The goal is to reduce friction in the leasing process and provide a clear path to long-term occupancy.
Ample on-site parking, a functional campus layout, and multiple access points make the property easy to navigate for both employees and visitors. In addition, ongoing improvements and capital considerations—such as roof and HVAC evaluation—are being addressed to ensure the building performs at a high level for years to come.
23 Clara Drive represents an opportunity for tenants to position themselves within a growing and evolving commercial environment, supported by strong ownership, professional management, and a strategic leasing approach.
For tenants seeking flexible space in a high-demand coastal market, this property offers a compelling combination of location, functionality, and long-term potential.
