SAND
CASTLE INN B&B- Adjacent to prestigious North Shore Dr. of South Haven,
Michigan, which overlooks Lake Michigan, The Sand Castle Inn B&B offers the
convenience of access to Lake Michigan (just 1 block away) and walking distance to
all major area attractions, including the beach, shops, restaurants, South Haven harbor and the downtown business district. It is located in a residential
setting across from Stanley Johnston Park. Year round draws include Lake Michigan
beaches, Kal-Haven bike trail, fruit farms, quaint boutique shops, antiques,
golf, boating, wineries, cross country skiing, and fine restaurants.
Current owners have utilized a manager and have elected to close for two
months during the winter. There is much upward revenue potential available
in addition to the solid upcoming season business that is already booked.
The Sand Castle Inn B&B also generates additional revenue by managing the
adjacent condo owners’ rentals.
The
inn is brand new construction in 1996. It is one of the most historic
buildings in South Haven that is totally renovated, having originally been
built as the Shamrock Resort back in the late 1800’s. The construction
includes all new plumbing, electric, heating and air systems, framing, cable
TV, fire sprinklers, and phone systems. All brand new interiors.
Fully
restored in 1996, this 4,000 sq. ft., turn-of-the-century Queen Anne
Victorian features two turrets, offers balconies and decks for each room, has ample first floor
common areas and an enclosed front porch. The front porch panels are removed each spring for the ever popular “open porch” in the summer. The Sand Castle Inn B&B shares
a laundry room and a swimming pool and deck with the adjacent 10
condominiums. It is the only South Haven inn with a pool. Included in the
B&B listing is an adjacent lot with 10 off-street parking spaces for the inn.
Each
of the 8 guestrooms has been tastefully decorated and has a private bath,
central air & heat, cable TV/VCR, king-size bed, or two twin beds,
and a ceiling fan. The Majestic Suite features a round bedchamber, gas
fireplace, huge private deck & a two-story circular ceiling! Several of the
rooms are very dramatic and are suitable for special occasion visits. The
B&B rental rates range from $135 to $295 based on the season.
Included
in the sale are all furnishings and equipment except as noted on the
exception list. Also included are the Inn’s website (recently re-built), a
new computer, the front office/reservation software, and the credit card
machines.
With
its proximity to Chicago and Detroit (less than three hours from each),
South Haven provides a year round draw for this inn. That area includes
about 16 million people within that magical 3 hour driving radius for
overnight B&B guests. This
7 to 8 guestroom B&B, which is situated on an attractive corner, is being
offered at $995K, completely furnished. With $150,000 down, the
current owners will offer qualified buyers a 6%, interest-only $200K second
mortgage, with a 5 year balloon. The list price includes a turn-key
business with an established track record and many fine furnishings!
