Description
145 Esmeralda Drive is a unique mixed-use property comprised of two buildings situated on a 2.13-acre parcel in scenic Washoe Valley, Nevada. Zoned Low Density Suburban (LDS), the site accommodates low-density residential as well as light commercial uses. To top it off - the property enjoys views of the Sierra Nevada mountains to the west, and the Virginia Range to the east. The existing improvements are turnkey and provide a rare combination of investment income and owner-user flexibility. Although currently configured as a single parcel, the two buildings are positioned to create semi-private, 1+ acre settings that can function largely independent of one another. The first building is a 2,400 SF wood-frame structure constructed in 1996. It is currently leased to a childcare operator and includes a residential component that allows the tenant to live on-site. The property also benefits from a cell tower lease that generates passive income, which will transfer with the sale. The second building is a 4,000 SF masonry and metal structure originally built in 2001. Current ownership has extensively renovated the property with high-end finishes to include a 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence and lounge area, complemented by an attached 2,200 SF shop. The grounds are fully improved with concrete and paved surfaces, landscaped yard areas, a water feature, detached storage shed, and more. Offered vacant at closing, this building presents an exceptional opportunity for an owner-user, live/work occupant, weekend retreat, or potential small-event venue. Centrally located between Reno and Carson City, Washoe Valley has retained its rural, ranch-oriented character, yet is just minutes from the region's major employment and population centers. The property offers a compelling blend of privacy, functionality, and accessibility, with easy access to surrounding markets such as Reno, Sparks, Carson City, and Gardnerville. Potential users include contractors, landscapers, automotive enthusia
