Property Description

As featured in both Dwell and Mansion Global, Shakespeare Chateau Inn & Gardens is a landmark Gilded Age estate located along St. Joseph’s historic Hall Street and one of the Midwest’s most distinctive hospitality properties. Named Best Bed & Breakfast in St. Joseph for 2026, the estate has operated for more than 14 years as an established destination inn, wedding venue, and private-event setting. The commercial offering presents a rare opportunity to acquire a recognized hospitality platform with six guest suites, formal gathering and dining rooms, a commercial kitchen, wine cellar, nearly two acres of landscaped grounds, strong guest reviews, an established brand, and the potential for continued operations following acquisition. Built in 1885, the Chateauesque main residence retains an extraordinary collection of original architectural details, including 47 stained-glass windows, hand-carved cherry, mahogany, oak, and walnut woodwork, ornate plaster ceilings, encaustic tile floors, period chandeliers, and eight fireplaces. Among its most significant features is the rare Zuber panoramic wallpaper “Eldorado, ” installed circa 1920, with examples of the same historic French scenic wallpaper found in prominent settings including the White House. The carriage house includes three apartments that may support staff housing, extended-stay accommodations, or additional rental income. The companion structure at 819 Hall Street has been taken to the studs within its preserved historic exterior and offers potential for a restaurant, café, gallery, spa, event expansion, or additional guest accommodations, subject to zoning and applicable approvals. The commercial offering includes the real estate, most furnishings, furniture, fixtures and equipment, and designated business assets. Select personal property will be addressed separately. Video, floor plans, a 3D tour, historic documentation, and financial information are available upon request.
