About this home

Positioned in the heart of historic Volcano, this extraordinary property presents a rare opportunity for investors, entrepreneurs, or visionaries seeking a distinctive commercial or mixed-use asset steeped in Gold Rush history. Known as the former Bavarian Brewery, the approximately 3,100 square foot building located on a .29 acre lot within the town’s center has served both residential and commercial purposes over the years. The building design and C-1 zoning offers exceptional flexibility for a variety of future uses including retail, gallery, hospitality, office, tasting room, live/work space, or boutique business concept. Adding to the long-term potential, the adjacent .32 acre corner lot is also available separately for purchase, and represents the last vacant C-1 zoned lot in downtown Volcano. It is also the only remaining vacant lot in town that has a paid-for water connection and ongoing water service from the Volcano Community Services District.
Anchoring the property is a preserved piece of Gold Rush-era history thoughtfully adapted for modern living and flexible commercial use. Dating back over 150 years, the structure is fortified by original 24-inch-thick stone walls, iron shutters, and enduring craftsmanship that has withstood time, fire, and transformation. Lovingly held by the same family for more than six decades, the property blends historic authenticity with carefully integrated upgrades and expanded living spaces.
Currently configured as an approximately 3,100 square foot residence with 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, office/den space, guest accommodations, and multiple flexible living areas, the property lends itself to a variety of future uses. The original stone brewery footprint of the building currently serves as a dramatic living/family room, but can also be opened to the public through the original iron doors that face the town center. The historic elements of the building have been thoughtfully augmented with warm wood interiors, expansive windows, and seamless indoor-outdoor flow to create an inviting atmosphere throughout.
The kitchen and dining areas open to an enchanting garden setting with mature landscaping, seasonal blooms, stone pathways, and thoughtfully curated outdoor spaces that evoke tranquility and inspiration. Distinctive architectural influences, including subtle Japanese-inspired design elements, add artistry and uniqueness rarely found in historic properties.
Modern infrastructure supports comfortable living or business operation, including dual-zone HVAC, multiple heating options, tankless water heaters, whole-house generator, wheel-chair ramps at two entrances into the building, an attached carport with EV charging capability and an additional outbuilding providing storage and utility.
With its prime downtown location, commercial zoning and potential expansion, rich historical provenance, and unmatched flexibility, this is a truly rare legacy opportunity in one of the Sierra Foothills’ most charming and historic destinations....
