Overview

Description

Historic 1874 Moondance Inn | Turnkey Red Wing Bed & Breakfast Own a piece of Red Wing history with the iconic Moondance Inn—an extraordinary 1874 Italianate Craftsman home built of rare Barn Bluff limestone and operating as a successful, turnkey bed and breakfast. The inn is an active hospitality business; showings are by appointment only with a licensed Realtor. Please do not approach guests or enter the property without a scheduled showing. Built using limestone quarried from nearby Barn Bluff, this remarkable historic home features impressive 18-inch thick stone walls, exceptional craftsmanship, and is believed to be the only private residence constructed with this distinctive Red Wing limestone. Originally built for the town doctor and later owned by a prominent lumber baron, the home showcases rich black walnut woodwork added during the lumber baron era, original Tiffany light fixtures, and a dramatic curved staircase, beautiful examples of preserved period craftsmanship and historic architectural character. The front sitting room features a rare gold etched ceiling that the current owner notes is believed to be one of the only examples of its kind in Minnesota, found in other civic buildings. The property offers 6 bedrooms, 10 bathrooms, and approximately 7,500 finished square feet and is being sold fully furnished, creating a rare turnkey opportunity for boutique hospitality, historic inn ownership, or a destination bed and breakfast experience. Each guest room features its own distinctive character and private jetted tub, providing a relaxing retreat for visitors. The grand salon serves as the heart of the home, featuring a wood-burning fireplace and an inviting gathering space ideal for conversation, music, and small events. The property has hosted acoustic music performances, card gatherings, and wedding rehearsals, and includes tables and seating to accommodate events and group gatherings. The walk-up attic offers a remarkable open-concept gathering space centered around striking angled brick dual chimneys, with exposed stone end walls, warm pine finishes, a gas fireplace, and a convenient half bath. The basement features a welcoming lounge area finished with beautiful yellow pine walls and ceiling, along with a bathroom and shower that support gatherings and events hosted at the property. Outdoor spaces invite relaxation and connection with nature. Enjoy the covered east-facing front porch, perfect for morning coffee and sunrise views, or gather on the patio nestled between the kitchen and the charming carriage house. The thoughtfully curated healing garden includes herbs, echinacea, feverfew, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries, and fruit trees including plum, pear, cherry, and apple, creating a peaceful retreat setting. The carriage house above the two-car garage provides additional living quarters with a full bathroom and studio space, ideal for owner living, guest overflow, or creative workspace, and is not included in the home’s finished square footage. Located in the historic Mississippi River town of Red Wing, the property benefits from strong tourism driven by Barn Bluff hiking, the Mississippi River valley, downtown Red Wing shops and dining, the Sheldon Theatre, and regional festivals and events. Major mechanical updates include two newer boilers, four water heaters replaced within the past four years, a water softener system, and recently painted exterior trim and windows.
