Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
The Benjamin Ellis House is a fully operational historic bed and breakfast in the downtown historic district, built around nine tastefully appointed guest rooms, each with its own private bath. The home also includes a welcoming parlor for guest gatherings and a warm, elegant dining room used for breakfast service, along with additional intimate spaces for reading, conversation, and relaxation. A spacious, covered front porch provides an inviting outdoor setting.
A centerpiece of the property is an expansive, custom designed commercial kitchen crafted by the current owners. The kitchen is described as meeting requirements for a restaurant permit, which the remarks indicate could support additional revenue options such as private dinners, cooking demonstrations, or culinary events if the next owner chooses to expand beyond traditional lodging. Several private accommodations are also included on the grounds.
In addition to the main inn, a separate 1,857-square-foot owner’s cottage was completely redesigned and renovated in 2019/2020. Above the detached garage, there is also a 511-square-foot one-bedroom apartment that can provide added flexibility for staff quarters, extended family, or long-term rental potential.
