Remarks

Turn your business dreams into reality with this one-of-a-kind commercial opportunity in the heart of the Adirondacks. Formerly Stephenson's Lumber Yard, this mixed-use property offers nearly 9,700 square feet of flexible space on 1.3 acres w/over 100 feet of road frontage along St Rt 8, just minutes from the Village of Speculator.

Zoned for both commercial and residential use, the possibilities are nearly endless. Whether you're envisioning a retail destination, wedding venue, restaurant, brewery, event center, fitness facility, professional offices, apartments, or a combination of uses, this property provides the space and flexibility to bring your vision to life.

The first floor features more than 4,700 SF, including a spacious retail showroom, private office, break room, bathroom, and an expansive storage or workshop area that can easily support inventory, manufacturing, or additional business operations.

The second floor opens to an impressive banquet hall of over 2,300 SF featuring rustic wood walls, natural hardwood floors, and a 16' x 28' elevated stage. A welcoming 640-square-foot bar and reception area greets guests upon arrival, while separate men's & women's restrooms make the space ideal for weddings, receptions, concerts, community events, private parties, or banquet rentals. This level can be accessed from the main retail space or through its own private entrance directly from the parking lot, creating opportunities for multiple businesses to operate independently.

Significant infrastructure improvements have already been completed, including a new drilled well in 2023 and a serviced septic system with new pumps installed in 2023. The expansive 125' x 150' parking area easily accommodates customers, guests, and large events.

An added bonus is the opportunity to purchase this property separately or combine it w/the adjacent 1.36-acre parcel featuring two commercial storage buildings.
