Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
The Peacock Motel is a traditional motor court motel property built on 8.32 acres with a central office and sleeping room, plus 22 guest rooms along with 2 suites and 1 large apartment. On-site improvements include a laundry building and a storage shed, and the overall layout provides room for expansion. Parking is supported by the vintage motor court design with door-to-parking access typical of motor court configurations.
The property is located near Cape Center south of Cape Charles on US Route 13 and has more than 800 feet of highway frontage. The asset is in the Virginia Enterprise Zone for economic development incentives. Public remarks indicate the property has not been operated as a motel for several years and has instead been used as longer-stay or employee housing, with VDH operation permits for a Motel currently in place.
For operators and investors seeking hospitality or housing inventory with a motor court configuration, the existing room mix and permitting status are practical considerations. The current housing use suggests it can function immediately under a similar longer-stay format, while the motel-permit status and on-site lodging count provide a straightforward basis for reintroducing motel operations, subject to applicable requirements.
