Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This historic building was originally constructed in 1848 and underwent a substantial renovation in 1994, resulting in a multi-purpose layout designed for hospitality and events. The property is approximately 10,743 square feet on nearly 3 acres and is zoned B-1. Interior features include a commercial kitchen, formal rooms, a salon, a ballroom, office space, laundry facilities, and a home theatre. The guest component consists of five BR suites, supporting overnight hosting for events and private gatherings.
The grounds include hardscaped patios, a pergola, an outdoor fireplace, and extensive parking, with the property positioned against the Peaks of Otter backdrop. Town water and sewer are available, adding practicality for a broad range of uses. The listing also notes easy access to Lynchburg, Smith Mountain Lake, and Roanoke.
For operators, buyers, or tenants looking for a one-building solution, the combination of event-focused spaces, guest suites, and back-of-house functionality can support hospitality and venue programming while still providing room for administrative use through on-site office space. With its established event use and B-1 zoning, the property may also appeal to those seeking a flexible commercial site where accommodations and meeting-oriented functions can be handled in-house.
