History of the Property
The facility at 290 County Road 734 was built in 2012 and operated as a childcare center from opening. It was established without business financing and improved by the original owners throughout its history, including classroom expansions, playground upgrades, and building maintenance. Meaningful capital improvements were completed in 2023 and 2024, leaving the facility in good condition.
The business is no longer operating. This is a real estate offering. The property — land, building, and all FF&E — is offered for sale as real estate.
