Colonial Williamsburg Inn for Sale – The Cedars of Williamsburg

Investment Overview

The Cedars of Williamsburg presents a rare opportunity to acquire a stabilized, income-producing Colonial Williamsburg Inn for sale in one of Virginia’s most established and resilient hospitality markets and a market named the most “Underrated Travel Gem in the U.S.” by Travel + Leisure. Situated on a 0.95± acre parcel at 616 Jamestown Road, the property operates as a ten-room boutique Inn supported by diversified leisure, university, and event-driven demand.

The Inn features ten distinct guest accommodations, including well-appointed standard guest rooms, spacious suites, and Cedars Cottage offering two private suite-style units. Operating performance reflects consistent stabilized occupancy supported by Williamsburg’s balanced mix of destination tourism and institutional visitation. Established operations combined with targeted modernization opportunities position the asset for continued performance stability and long-term growth potential.

Location & Demand Drivers – Williamsburg, Virginia

Strategically positioned directly across from the College of William & Mary and within walking distance of Colonial Williamsburg, the Inn benefits from one of the Mid-Atlantic’s most durable lodging markets.

Williamsburg anchors Virginia’s Historic Triangle alongside Jamestown and Yorktown, attracting more than four million visitors annually. Additional demand drivers include Jamestown Settlement and Busch Gardens Williamsburg, collectively supporting more than $1 billion in annual regional tourism spending.

Unlike purely seasonal leisure destinations, Williamsburg benefits from year-round university programming, alumni visitation, weddings, academic events, and institutional travel, creating a stable operating environment well suited to boutique hospitality assets.

Asset Description

Constructed circa 1940, the 2.5-story brick Colonial-style Inn reflects architectural character consistent with Williamsburg’s preservation-focused lodging environment. Historic detailing and mature landscaping enhance guest appeal while maintaining walkable connectivity to campus and nearby historic attractions.

The landscaped grounds provide a natural buffer from Jamestown Road, while a gazebo and small outdoor event space behind the Cottage offer flexibility for intimate gatherings and expanded guest programming. Exterior systems and common areas are well maintained, allowing future ownership to focus primarily on cosmetic and experiential improvements.

Operating Performance & Stability

The Cedars of Williamsburg demonstrates consistent operating performance supported by diversified demand channels:

• Average Occupancy: approximately 63–64%

• Average Daily Rate: approximately $173

• Guest Accommodations: 10

Seasonal demand peaks during spring and summer heritage tourism periods, while fall and winter visitation associated with university activity and regional travel moderates typical off-season fluctuations. This balanced demand profile supports dependable year-round occupancy uncommon among small independent Inns. Detailed financial information is available to qualified buyers upon execution of a confidentiality agreement.

Value-Add Opportunities

While operationally stable, the Inn presents clear opportunities for phased growth, including:

• Guest bathroom and in-room amenity upgrades

• Continued cosmetic modernization

• Revenue management optimization

• Expansion of small-event and experiential offerings

Incremental improvements provide opportunity for future rate growth while preserving the property’s established operating foundation.

Access & Regional Connectivity

• Approximately 50 miles from Richmond

• 150 miles from Washington, D.C.

• 200 miles from Raleigh

Air access is provided via Newport News/Williamsburg International Airport (20 miles) and Richmond International Airport (45 miles), supporting consistent leisure and institutional visitation throughout the year.
