Overview
Restored Kinderhook Mixed-Use Landmark
The Kinderhook Guild is a restored mixed-use commercial landmark dating back to circa 1787, situated in the heart of Kinderhook's village center. This early American Federal building has been reimagined for modern mixed-use functionality while honoring its historic character. The property includes the original 1787 structure, featuring a beaded clapboard exterior, wavy glass windows, a steeply pitched roof, and historic details such as original wide-plank floors, hand-hewn beams, and Rumford fireplaces, as well as a contemporary rear addition. The building comprises 10 flexible suites across two floors. It is currently configured with two ground floor units, one of which is a fully built-out wine bar and tapas restaurant with a leased tenant. The other is a vacant ground floor space suitable for retail, gallery, or mixed-use. The eight upstairs units are suitable for private offices, creative studios, wellness practices, co-working, retail concepts, short-term hospitality, or professional services. A separate, street-facing first-floor entrance opens to a vacant, turnkey retail space featuring four rooms and a bathroom connected by a hall. Upstairs, eight private suites and two bathrooms offer flexibility to be combined or used independently for retail concepts, professional offices, creative workspaces, wellness studios, short term-rentals or boutique lodging. The building supports a multitude of uses, with private and public entrances, two separate 200-amp panels, two stairwells, and handicap accessibility. The building features a 50-year rubber roof, municipal sewer and water, a 2,096 sq ft basement, AC systems, thoughtful low-maintenance landscaping, and a newly restored exterior. A private lot with room for 17 cars adds convenience to this central village location. The building holds a Historic Preservation Certificate from the Village of Kinderhook.
