Excellent opportunity for commercial development with prime frontage on NYS Route 17B in the Town of Thompson. This property offers exceptional potential with a versatile layout and multiple existing structures. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath manufactured home on a full foundation needs work but could serve as a rental investment or unique live/work solution. A large two-bay garage with workshop space sits adjacent to the home, as does a pole barn, while a second oversized garage with additional storage is positioned separately on the property with its own driveway access from Route 17B. The land is open, fairly level, and gently tiered, with wooded sections adding privacy and character. There is over 1000 feet of road frontage, allowing ample access. Two existing permitted billboards provide additional income potential (3840 annually). Route 17B continues to grow as a thriving commercial corridor, surrounded by expanding development and established businesses including service companies, auto dealerships, restaurants, gas stations, and professional offices. As the main gateway to the Town of Bethel and its many recreational lakes, including Swinging Bridge Reservoir and White Lake, this highly traveled route benefits from steady year-round traffic. The area is further enhanced by the nearby Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, located on the historic site of the 1969 Music Festival, drawing significant seasonal tourism and event traffic. Favorable HC-2 Highway Commercial zoning allows for a wide range of potential uses with Town approval. This is a rare opportunity to invest in a high-visibility location with exceptional long-term growth potential.
