379 & 391 Route 145

Description

Welcome to East Durham, a place where green hills and meadows, blue mountains and blue skies are the awe-inspiring backdrop to vacations, weekends of escape, and lifestyles filled with community, outdoor activity and culture. Decades of visitors have made East Durham a destination for music festivals, visits to roadside farm stands, and misty morning hikes. Set on a corner lot just shy of one acre, this rare dual-building commercial opportunity offers high visibility and versatile potential. The parcel consists of two brick structures, both single-level and built on concrete slabs, surrounded by paddocks enclosed with classic split rail fencing and a spacious gravel parking lot that welcomes both commerce and community. At 391 Route 145, The Green Isle Wines & Liquor Store has long served locals and visitors alike as a must-stop for celebratory spirits and everyday essentials. Maintain it as a liquor store (refer to NYS Liquor Authority for more information on how to acquire an existing or new license) or make a fresh start with a new vision - think retail, tasting room, studio, or gallery. Just steps away at 379 Route 145, sits a 2-bedroom, 1-bath renovated ranch-style home that offers cozy living with brick-built durability. Whether used as a residence, rental, office, or guest quarters, this space adds depth and flexibility to the compound's potential. Together, these buildings form a rare pairing of commercial and residential, lifestyle and livelihood - all set within a pastoral landscape that hints at equestrian use, hobby farming, or outdoor events. The Green Isle Compound isn't just a property, it's a portal to possibility, to place, and to the pulse of the Catskills. With Route 145's steady traffic and East Durham's cultural magnetism, this property is poised for visionaries: entrepreneurs, artists, investors, or anyone seeking to root their next chapter in a place that feels both timeless and alive.
