The Steam Plant

Located on 1.15 acres near downtown, the Steam Plant Building has great location and amenities for a restaurant use. Soaring ceilings and windows with massive masonry walls make for great ambiance and spectacular interior light. An existing second floor mezzanine is ready for private dining or parties while the rear area of the building is perfect for a kitchen with plenty of storage, cooler and back of house areas. Loading is easily available from the rear and side of the building and the two front elevations of the building have terrific street presence for a grand entrance. There’s even the opportunity to connect the second floor to the existing adjacent abandoned train trestle for a one-of-a-kind outdoor dining experience.

The grounds of the Villages are reminiscent of the “natural” English landscape, with extensive lawns, water features and mature plantings. Fountains, bridges, and a gazebo create picturesque focal points, while the creek and numerous weeping willows provide a restful atmosphere. The grounds are perfect for strolling and relaxation, or for a quiet lunchtime picnic. A large swath of land surrounding the creek will be maintained as parkland for the public’s enjoyment.

Some of the earliest buildings at the Villages are particularly well-suited for use as a hotel and spa due to the configuration of their floor plans. But the historic details and materials provide added substance that is unique and irreproducible today. Stately columns, intricate wrought iron fences, elaborate fan windows, and substantial mouldings highlight the age and elegance of the buildings. And the setting amidst a landscape of mature trees and rolling hills adds to the serene atmosphere. The charm of historic downtown Staunton is only steps away, while the surrounding Shenandoah valley provides for varied leisure and cultural activities.
