TURNKEY RESTAURANT PROPERTY WITH DRIVE THRU POTENTIAL ALONG A KEY HUDSON VALLEY CORRIDOR. Seller financing available. A classic midcentury diner set along one of the Hudson Valley's most heavily traveled routes, 90 Old Route 9W offers presence, visibility, and real operational flexibility. The striking building sits confidently along the road, familiar and approachable, with the kind of roadside character that invites repeat visits and spontaneous stops alike. Just minutes from Kingston's Roundout and Stockade districts, the property benefits from proximity to a well established dining and cultural scene while maintaining the advantages of a true drive by location. Daily traffic exceeds 15,000 vehicles along Route 9W, with an additional 5,700 cars per day along Old Route 9W, creating sustained exposure throughout the day rather than reliance on peak hours alone. The restaurant spans approximately 1,610 square feet and retains the clarity and efficiency that made midcentury diners enduringly functional. Inside, a long run of windows brings in abundant natural light, illuminating red banquette seating, classic checkerboard floors, and clean sightlines throughout the dining room. Seating for more than 50 guests is arranged for easy flow and adaptability, suitable for counter service, casual dining, or a reimagined concept. Two walk up service windows further support takeout, seasonal service, or high volume operations. Behind the scenes, the kitchen is fully built out and operational, with commercial grade equipment, stainless prep surfaces, hood system, fryers, grill, refrigeration, and dedicated dish and prep areas. The layout supports efficient service while allowing flexibility for updates or reconfiguration depending on concept. Set on a 1.3 acre parcel, the site is a defining asset. Outdoor seating areas are already established, with room to expand for additional tables or events. Two existing curb cuts allow for potential drive thru service, while the expansive paved lot provides parking for approximately 26 vehicles and supports smooth circulation. Aerial views underscore the property's visibility, scale, and proximity to Kingston's neighborhoods, waterfront, and commercial activity. This is a true turnkey opportunity for an owner operator, investor, or restaurateur seeking a high visibility location with built in infrastructure and long term flexibility. Whether continuing the fast-food/ice cream shop tradition or introducing a new concept, the property offers a rare combination of character, traffic exposure, and optionality in one of the Hudson Valley's most active commercial corridors.
