TOUR THE INCREDIBLE MULTI-USE BUILDING

A massive 9,000 + square foot steel building was constructed in 2012 and is exploding with opportunities. Formerly known as the Dutch Valley Market, it is currently zoned as Rural/Residential but with a special use permit from the County, could be converted back to retail/commercial use. The front of the building has an extensive, paved parking lot supporting use for retail/commercial space, has several doors for entrances and exits, and an attractive overhang where you could display products, provide outdoor seating, or simply relax!

The structure currently boasts a mix of open space, 2^nd and 3^rd living areas, workshop possibilities, fantastic storage opportunities, and whatever else you can dream of!

The main open area was previously used for retail business and is presently used for additional living room. The current owners constructed a non-load bearing wall to create another living area with another great kitchen/dining space, pantry, ½ bathroom, storage closets, and 2 non-conforming bedrooms.

The North side of the building is separated by a wall and has been used for storage. You’ll find an electrical panel in this room too; the electricity is currently disconnected so if desired to be used again, it would need to be re-connected.

The South side of the building has another large kitchen and workspace with a center island, storage closets off the main area and a newer hot water heater. A set of stairs leads up to a second story housing a 3^rd living room with numerous windows transporting tons of natural light to emphasize a great living/kitchen/dining area, pantry, 2 large bedrooms and a full bathroom.
