Facilities:The single story 3,900 square foot log building has a similarly sized lower basement storage space, and contains four connected well-illuminated retailing areas for display of their wide variety of goods. There is also a large, highly visible deck in front for showing outdoor Adirondack Chairs, tables and similar bulky patio and dock items. There is a central ”check out” counter with computer-supported cash register, etc. where the congenial staff greets those who come to shop and see the latest in quality interior decorations that befit a mountain holiday four-season situation. Heat is oil/hot air, there is a 200 amp electric service, and there is public water and septic. This classic and yet rustic retailer is sited on a .4-acre level lot with parking for 25+ cars, and easy access from the heavily traveled main highway where it has 150’ of frontage and good signage. Located in the community of Ray Brook, its neighbors include cabin motels, a busy restaurant, a home improvement center/lumberyard, a gas station, a Ford Dealer and the headquarters of the NY State Police, the Dept. of Environmental Conservation and the Adirondack Park Agency.
Market Outlook and Competition:Considering size, location on main road, nearness to tourist attraction and the world renouned Olympic Village of Lake Placid, parking and quaint rustic décor, this is a premium opportunity for retailing to local residents and visitor. Current owners have been successful in building a great business over the last decade, need time now with family, and can turn over an exciting and profitable opportunity to someone with new energy and imagination who can build increased sales and profits … or just enjoy a comfortable great income in a beautiful area of the mountains. There are few high visibiity high quality ware stores of Ray Brook Frog's quality.
