Description
Shakespeare Chateau Inn and Gardens, located in the historic Hall Street District, is one of St. Joseph's premier homes. Built in 1885, this Chateauesque style home was built by Nathan P. Ogden. This high-Victorian mansion is an architectural gem, showcasing 47 original stained glass windows, exquisite hand-crafted woodwork, an expansive encaustic tile foyer, ornate plaster ceilings, and many original chandeliers - just to name a few. The main house is a fully furnished turn-key bed and breakfast with six elegant suites, a spacious commercial kitchen and wine cellar perfect for small gatherings. Four guest rooms on the second level are furnished with period art and antiques each named after works of Shakespeare. Two additional suites on the third level are ideal for long term guests. The carriage house provides three apartments, perfect for longer-term rentals, adding versatility to the property. 819 Hall Street is also included. This all brick house has been refurbished on the exterior and inside is a blank canvas, stripped to the studs and ready for a transformative rehab. Whether you envision a personal residence, a thriving B&B, or an event space, the possibilities here are endless. Live your dream and make Shakespeare Chateau your next great chapter. This is a RARE OPPORTUNITY to own a piece of history. This house has changed hands only five times in 140 years and remains as magnificent as the day it was built.
