Located in the heart of Cairo's revitalizing Main Street in the Hudson Valley, this early 20th-century mixed-use commercial building offers a prime opportunity for investors, entrepreneurs, or those seeking a live/work property in the Catskills. The first floor features large storefront display windows and an open, flexible layout with a kitchen, living/lounge area, original tin ceilings and walls, and a half bath—ideal for a retail shop, studio, gallery, café, or office. The second floor is a spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath apartment with a natural, flowing layout—living room into dining room into kitchen—plus a dedicated office. Two covered porches provide additional outdoor space. A large unfinished rear room with its own private entrance offers potential to expand living space, create a workshop or studio, or develop a short-term rental or professional suite (with appropriate approvals). The property also includes off-street parking and a fenced backyard with gated access. Cairo is an up-and-coming Hudson Valley town with a walkable Main Street where you can grab coffee, enjoy local restaurants, visit the library, and relax in the park—no car keys needed. Close to Catskill, Hudson, Windham, and major travel routes. A versatile investment in a growing Catskills community.
