This Authentic Turn-of-the-Century Dance Hall, is the eccentric Live-Work retreat you have been dreaming about. Inspired by the Octagonal Shaker Barns, popular in the region during the 1850's-1900's, this historic structure was a thriving music venue in it's heyday, and still has many period details. Once it housed a tavern downstair and a dance floor upstairs, with covers porched overlooking the Esopus Creek, for revelers to enjoy cold drinks and cool mountain air. It is now a fantastic place for you to work and play, entertain, or create: art, music and rental income! Designed for superior acoustics, this truly unique space could become a perfect recording studio or sound stage, rehearsal space, yoga studio, work shop or boutique store. High ceilings, massive square footage, this special space offers enormous flexibility in use and enough room for the whole band, their van and all their gear! The building has been well maintained and has expanded, including a two bedroom guest house which has a heathy rent roll, a huge an attached garage. Ground floor work space has 15 foot high ceiling and a roll up door, radiant heated concrete floors and an antique bar! New roof and many recent upgrades combine with the old log walls, hardwood floors, river stones and exposed beams, preserving it's rustic elegance. You can still “Belly up” to the live-edge rail at the bar. Borscht Belt folklore tells tale that infamous bootlegger (and silent partner) Dutch Schultz was visiting this “Speakeasy” the night he buried his legendary “Hidden Treasure of Phoenicia”. You can explore the surrounding wilderness, trail heads & fishing, fine dinning & craft beer. If you are looking for an investment you can enjoy? and a place to escape and create? This is a unique opportunity to own a piece of Catskills history, “Dutch's treasure chest” may be long gone, but the original octagonal dance floor is still intact.
