Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Bridgewalk Estates is a boutique hotel and event space featuring five decorated suites, each with a private bath. The main level includes a sitting room, piano room, and a large dining area, supported by shared kitchen and laundry on premise. The lower level has been reimagined as a speakeasy/barrel room that can host guests on-site or be rented for special events. An owners suite with bath is located just off the garage, and it has recently been remodeled.

Set on about one acre, the property includes landscaped grounds with Knowles Creek running through the site, along with a deck overlooking the area, a fire pit, and multiple lounging areas for guest use. The property is located in Central Lake, within walking distance to stores including Mammoth and Fudgies. It is also described as minutes from a public boat launch and park for Intermediate Lake, with nearby towns including Bellaire, Charlevoix, and Bay Harbor.

Offered for sale as a turn-key operation with items included, the property is positioned for continued lodging and event bookings. With on-site guest accommodations, dedicated event-capable space in the lower level, and an owner’s suite separate from the main guest areas, it supports straightforward operation for an owner-operator or hospitality-focused buyer looking to continue and manage bookings through upcoming seasons.

Key Highlights

  • 5‑suite boutique hotel and event space in Central Lake, with private baths for each suite
  • Main level includes sitting room, piano room, large dining area, plus shared kitchen and on‑premise laundry
  • Lower level speakeasy/barrel room for guest hosting and/or special event rentals

Financial Insights

Estimated NOI and Cap Rate

NOI = area × lease_rate × (100 − vacancy) / 100 × (1 − expense_ratio). Net Operating Income — what the owner takes home each year before mortgage payments and income tax. Effective rent (asking rent minus vacancy losses) minus operating costs (taxes, insurance, maintenance, management).
NOI / Yr
$35,592
Cap rate = NOI / list price × 100. Capitalization rate — annual return on a fully cash purchase, before financing. NOI divided by price. Higher means more income per dollar invested, but usually also more risk or older condition. 5–8% is typical for stabilized commercial property; double digits often signal distressed deals.
Cap Rate
4.19%
Suggested Prices Based on Cap Rates Cap rates vary significantly by property type, market, and asset quality. Typical U.S. stable-market ranges: Multifamily — 4.5% to 6.5% (Class A in primary markets often sub-5%; Class C in secondary markets 6%+) Industrial / Logistics — 5.0% to 7.0% (compressed heavily in recent years due to e-commerce demand) Office — 6.5% to 9%+ (wide spread post-2020; CBD Class A vs. suburban Class B varies dramatically) Retail — 5.5% to 8.5% (grocery-anchored on the low end, unanchored strip centers higher) Hospitality / Hotels — 7.5% to 10%+ (higher due to operational risk) Self-Storage — 5.5% to 7.5% Medical Office — 6.0% to 7.5% Net Lease (single tenant, credit) — 5.0% to 7.0% depending on tenant credit and lease term Rules of thumb: Primary markets (NYC, SF, LA, Boston, DC) trade at lower cap rates than secondary/tertiary markets, often by 100–200 bps (bps, aka basis points; 1 bp = 0.01%). Class A assets trade ~50–150 bps tighter than Class B, and Class B tighter than Class C. Cap rates move inversely with price — a lower cap rate means a higher price for the same NOI. Spread to the 10-year Treasury is a common benchmark; historically 200–400 bps over the 10-year.
