A storied site & structure located within the imminently poised-to-pop Village of Red Hook along the Rhinebeck/Hudson corridor. This is a AAA opportunity for the creative and wise investor. Its 5200+ sqft w/20'+ ceilings + 3200sqft full height lower level is situated on 1¼ central village acres. The coveted NMU Zoning allows for a multitude of choices - eateries, retail, housing, multi-family, offices, education, day-care, medical, business, etc & etc - which Village residents, shopkeeps, students & visitors will surely welcome & support. Think other vibrant, small college towns. In the '40s, Eugene Callison designed this U-Shape building for a soap factory, thus the moniker. Its central courtyard provides a welcoming reception area, and the level property offers itself to further development or any alfresco activities. The Route 9 (S Broadway) thoroughfare and sidewalks will generate quite a bit of activity for any venture and the abundant rear parking leaves the front unmarred. In recent years, costly infrastructure upgrades were implemented by the present owner for a now amended plan - See Associated Data Sheet. The dirty work is done. The Soap Factory is a historic component of Red Hook Village, and it continues to afford opportunities for a wealth of unique endeavors. This building and its land are a canvas for a number of architectural and landscape expressions. Consider perhaps a supercool village residence/studio. Insightful investors know growth in Red Hook is here, right now.
