I am the Realtor with whom Buzby's owner Marilyn listed her shop/home. To answer your questions, yes, Buzby's is still on the market and no, she hasn't lowered the price. Marilyn is in the position where she doesn't need to sell, though at 80 years old, she's thinking she should probably retire soon! When I talked to her yesterday, she was unpacking new stock, so she has no plans to close unless she sells Buzby's! As far as some sites dropping the listing, the extended listing date just hasn't hit them yet. The shop is open Thursday-Sunday from 10 until 3 or 4. As I'm sure you know, she lives upstairs in the 3-bedroom residence that she also renovated. There is a commercial kitchen in the store which Marilyn rented on two different occasions, with the front section of the shop used as the dining area. A cafe could be in a future owner's plans, especially when they see the non-stop action across the street. While I can't discuss negotiations, we do have a few interested parties, so only time will tell the future of Buzby's. Everyone I talk to - including Marilyn - hopes it will be used much like it is right now!
Makes sense, no?
