Buddha Ventures, an LLC owned by Nancy Scumaci of Bolton Landing, purchased property at 16 Exchange St. in Glens Falls for $348,250.
The 4,000-square-foot building is home to Milk & Honey, Juicin’ Jar and Advokate LLC. It also includes a private two-story apartment that is occupied by a tenant.
Ann Parrish, the owner of Milk and Honey, purchased the building in 2005. It was not on the market at the time Scumaci expressed interest in buying it.
“I wanted to buy something in Glens Falls, and that happened to be my favorite building,” said Scumaci.“The building had been on the market but taken off because she didn’t find someone she wanted to sell to,” she said. “We met and there was just an instant like for each other, and she sold it to me.”
According to Scumaci, she has no plans of making any changes to the property.
“It’s going to stay the same. The building is staying as is, and all of the tenants are staying. I’m happy they are staying. There’s also an empty space—a very small space that is an apartment—that I use myself.”
