Overview
Facts
The Sugarloaf Mountain Motel & Market is a unique hospitality and retail portfolio located in the heart of the historic mining town of Virginia City. This unique asset, spread across three contiguous parcels totaling 0.60 acres, offers a powerful combination of steady lodging income, essential retail services, and residential upside. Named the best roadside motel in Nevada and the seventh best in the country by USA TODAY’s 2025 rankings, the property is a landmark destination for travelers seeking "Old West" charm blended with modern comforts.
The asset is anchored by the Sugarloaf Market, one of only two convenience stores in town, providing a year-round revenue stream. Beyond the 12-key motel and high-traffic market, the portfolio includes a 1,853 SF residential duplex currently serving as the owner’s quarters. For an investor, this offers immediate "hidden" Net Operating Income (NOI) through conversion into additional premium short-term rental units. Located in a Federal Opportunity Zone, this portfolio presents a rare opportunity for massive tax-advantaged appreciation in one of Nevada’s primary tourism corridors.
