Custom Post & Beam Home + 7,884 Sq. Ft. Commercial Shop on 15.8 Acres – Independence, NY
A rare opportunity to own a handcrafted post-and-beam residence paired with a large commercial shop, all situated on 15.8 private acres in the rural Town of Independence, NY (Whitesville Central School District).
Built in 2010, the 2-bedroom, 3-bath contemporary home features exposed post-and-beam construction, soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and warm natural woodwork throughout. The open main living area is filled with natural light and character. The home offers approximately 2,194 sq. ft. of finished living space, plus a finished partial basement (approx. 960 sq. ft.) currently used as a recreation area, ideal for hobbies, fitness, or media space.
The kitchen blends rustic charm with functional design and includes a wood-fired cookstove. Heating options include natural gas in-floor radiant heat with cast-iron radiators in the basement, along with a wood stove for added warmth and ambiance. A covered porch overlooking a flowing stream provides a peaceful outdoor setting. The home is vacant and winterized.
Also included is a 7,884 sq. ft. commercial shop +/- constructed with board-and-batten siding and a durable metal roof. The building features concrete floors throughout, multiple work bays, and sliding doors on both ends providing excellent access for trucks, equipment, and materials. The structure is largely insulated and equipped with 3-phase electric 480V, natural gas service, and a 230,000 BTU wood boiler supplying in-floor radiant heat. Door height is approximately 12 feet, with 13.5-foot ceiling height, allowing for larger vehicles and machinery. Previously used as a sawmill and custom boat-building facility, the shop is well suited for light industrial, agricultural, forestry, construction, or trades-based operations.
