What happened to our, "General Stores?"The Glen Gardner General Store is an historic building with an upstairs rental apartment, on .87ac. The apartment, rented till later this year at $1800/mo, is below market value, and could be an owner's residence..Additionally, it is a turn-key cafe or deli with a parking lot for at least 12 cars. This "destination" eatery has been successfully run for more than 70 years in the village of Glen Gardner. The apartment could be the owner's residence."The Store", built in 1860 by Joseph Gardner, was "The Mercantile" until the early 1900's. From 1948 until 1992 it was sold only twice. Current owners have run a successful business of well-fed diners for more than 3 decades. They have hosted fund raisers, local weddings, catered parties, funerals, showers and more. The owner's daughter had a consignment shop. Collectibles are still sold here. In addition to great food, the store is home to Shelly's Herbals & Botanicals and organic products made to order with national clients for her Elderberry Elixir. The store is warm, homey and draws customers from far and wide. New owners will find myriad opportunities for this unique space and location.The building has a new 50 year Timberline roof.The kitchen has a fire suppression system and the sale comes with the cooking grill, refrigeration, deli cooler and more. The possibilities for this property and The Glen Gardner General Store are as expansive as your imagination and motivation.
