2639 Guilderland Avenue, Schenectady, NY, 12306
About This Home
Rare opportunity to own a versatile mixed-use property offering the perfect live/work lifestyle. Currently configured as a barber shop with living quarters on the second floor, this property is ideal for an owner-occupant looking to operate a business while enjoying the convenience of living just upstairs. The upper level provides comfortable residential living, while the first floor offers an excellent space for a barber shop, salon, office, studio, or other approved business use. Buyers seeking a more traditional residential layout will appreciate the property's conversion potential. By enclosing the front room on the left as you enter (currently used as the barber area), the first floor could accommodate a bedroom, combined living and dining area, and full bath, creating a functional two-bedroom home. Whether you're an entrepreneur, small business owner, investor, or buyer looking for a unique property with exceptional flexibility, 2639 Guilderland Avenue offers endless possibilities in a highly convenient Rotterdam location. Live upstairs, work downstairs, or customize the space to fit your vision.
