Investment Analysis — 25 West St

A rare opportunity to own the iconic Hamilton Orchards, a beloved destination in New Salem for generations. Situated on approximately 19 commercial acres and protected by an Agricultural Preservation Restriction (APR), this property offers an exceptional opportunity for qualifying agricultural operations while preserving its rich farming heritage. The 3,000+ sq. ft. retail building is equipped with multiple walk-in coolers and freezers, expansive retail space, storage areas, and four half baths, providing infrastructure for a wide variety of agricultural and farm retail uses. A separate approximately 400 sq. ft. seasonal cottage has historically housed orchard workers, offering additional flexibility. The property also features a greenhouse structure in need of a new cover and a small pond toward the rear of the property. When in operation, Hamilton Orchards was known for its pick-your-own apples, blueberries, raspberries, peaches, and pumpkins, along with its farm stand, bakery, cider, maple syrup, and seasonal events. Today, this property presents a rare opportunity to continue its agricultural legacy or reimagine it within the permitted uses of the APR. Property is being sold as-is, where-is and is in need of TLC. Heating system is not operational; condition of equipment is unknown; Title V is buyer’s responsibility. Subject to right of first refusal granted to the Commonwealth. Buyer to perform all due diligence regarding allowed uses and restrictions.
