About This Property

Rare Bethlehem Offering - Unzoned 2-Acre Property with Commercial-Ready 3,000 SF Barn + 1740s Residence A rare commercial/mixed-use opportunity in a town with no zoning restrictions, sited at Bethlehem, CT's famous blinking light with easy access to Washington, Litchfield & Woodbury. The centerpiece is a 3,000 SF barn, originally built out for a commercial dine-in bakery, with the significant infrastructure investment already complete: new roof, doors meeting fire & code, 4-phase electrical, roughed plumbing & HVAC, & poured concrete floors. No zoning to navigate, the possibilities are wide open - event venue, restaurant or bakery, artisan workshop, wellness retreat, boutique inn, or creative studio space. Adding to the flexibility is a fully preserved 1740s antique home (4 bedrooms, 5 fireplaces including a 12' hearth with beehive oven, walk-up attic, 9' basement ceilings that homes a Viessmann furnace & hot water heater) -ideal as an owner/innkeeper residence, on-site management quarters, or income-generating guest suites for a B&B concept. A separate milk house adds further flexible SF for guest quarters, staff space, or additional studio/workshop use. The 2-acre site includes a picturesque pond well-suited to event or hospitality use, mature ornamental plantings, a newly graded and re-graveled driveway (2023), and 75 ft of town-maintained sidewalk for pedestrian access. The groundwork for a next chapter - hospitality, culinary, or creative - is already in place!
