Overview
Historic Train Station Restaurant Opportunity
This historic 1870s train station, transformed into a destination landmark, currently houses a sought-after restaurant. Located next to the Delaware River and the Upper Black Eddy-Milford Bridge, the restored building retains its historic character with a sophisticated aesthetic. The extensive renovation from 2017 to 2019 preserved original chestnut woodwork while incorporating custom-designed lighting. The original waiting room bench has been repurposed into a banquette. The property, zoned Downtown Business (B), is suited for various uses including retail, banking, offices, childcare, bakery, community hub, or creative studios. The floor plan includes a reception room with the original spiral staircase to an office overlooking the intimate patio garden, two front dining rooms, one with a service counter and sink, two lavatories (one accessible), and a janitorial closet. The open-concept kitchen, located in the station’s former freight room, features two Wolf six-burner cooktops/ovens, custom stainless-steel wraparound counters and shelves, a Carrara marble counter, hood exhaust with fire suppression system, and a wood-burning fireplace. This large, high-ceiling room also houses a dining area that can accommodate two long communal tables. The separate prep kitchen includes a triple sink and a stainless-steel counter with a prep sink. The basement houses the mechanicals and additional equipment, including a walk-in refrigerator, storage, water softening filtration system, and laundry hook-up. The building’s exterior includes a large patio and a wraparound deck with an awning roof for outdoor dining, an accessible entrance, and 15 parking spaces, including two accessible. Utilities include oil heat, propane for cooking, electric, public water, and sewer, with central A/C in the main dining areas and a split-duct AC system in the kitchen.
