Real estate developer Charlie Diradour has branched out from his usual stomping grounds to buy another parcel on Brookland Park Boulevard on Richmond’s North Side.

Diradour purchased the property at 205 W. Brookland Park Blvd. for $230,000 on Aug. 9. In May, he bought a piece of vacant land two doors down at 209 W. Brookland Park Blvd., which he said could be used to provide parking space for whatever tenant goes into the other building.

“Right now we are talking with folks about possibly doing a coffee and sandwich shop there,” Diradour said. “We have been listening to the neighborhood. That seems to be a need over there. There are multiple options with that property.”

Diradour’s other real estate investments include properties on the Boulevard. He said he was attracted to the momentum on Brookland Park Boulevard.
