5059 U.S. 209

Located in the heart of Accord along highly visible Route 209 between Kerhonkson and Stone Ridge, this rare mixed-use offering includes both the real estate and the established Bluebird Wine & Spirits business. With steady daily traffic and community presence, the property offers exceptional visibility, consistent income, and built-in goodwill. Bluebird Wine & Spirits has operated at this location since 2020, serving a loyal customer base of locals and area visitors alike. The site itself has housed a liquor store since the 1940s, underscoring its longstanding commercial presence and proven viability. Today, the business continues to generate strong income and remains a go-to stop also benefiting from its prime positioning near Accord Market, drawing shoppers who pair specialty groceries with a bottle for dinner or a weekend gathering. The surrounding corridor is poised for continued growth, with the upcoming Granary redevelopment in Accord, planned as a hotel, restaurant, and community hub, and the 1 Hotels & Homes development approximately 15 minutes away in Rosendale, both expected to further energize the area. The building features ground-floor retail and a second-floor studio apartment with a private deck overlooking the Rondout Creek. The retail level is currently configured as two separate storefront spaces with individual entrances which can be combined to nearly double the footprint of the wine shop. Use as two separate retail units would require town approval. The property also includes a full basement providing ample storage. Recent improvements over the past five years include a new roof, new water heater, wood flooring in the smaller retail space, and updates to the residential studio. Taking advantage of this opportunity now could allow a new owner to begin the NYS Liquor Authority approval process and potentially open in time to capture the area's busy season. This is a rare chance to acquire a thriving and turnkey business with an established liquor license, along with the underlying real estate, in one of Ulster County's most desirable and evolving corridors.
