Mixed-Use / Commercial Potential - 330'+ Frontage - Cash Only / As-Is Situated on 1 acre with over 330 feet of prime frontage and high visibility along State Highway 8 in Bridgewater, NY, just south of the intersection of Routes 8 and 20. Strong traffic exposure in a scenic rural setting known for year-round outdoor recreation. Built circa 1850 and offering approximately 2,315 sq ft, this historic Victorian includes 5 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a full basement. A detached 2-car garage/barn provides valuable storage, workshop space, or potential accessory use for commercial or mixed-use conversion. Electrical service has been updated, with newer roofs on both the home and barn and a newer hot water heater. Property will require a new furnace and renovation. Extensive original woodworking, flooring, doors, and period fixtures remain intact. Formerly the residence of a prominent country doctor and later operated as a well-known inn and restaurant, the property offers strong adaptive reuse potential including boutique inn, restaurant, short-term rental, professional office, retail, or live/work configuration (subject to municipal approvals). Four-season appeal with snowmobiling and winter recreation, plus hiking, fishing, boating, and rural tourism in warmer months. Less than 5 minutes to Winfield and approximately 20 minutes to Utica. Significant upside for investors seeking commercial redevelopment or hospitality conversion in a recreational corridor. Assignment of contract. Sold strictly as-is.
