Continue an established bed-and-breakfast or make this remarkable 1902 Queen Anne entirely your own. Honeybee Inn, located in Horicon, Wisconsin near the renowned Horicon Marsh, offers approximately 6,655 square feet of historic character and modern hospitality potential.

Currently operated as an intimate four-room, adults-only bed-and-breakfast with private owner living space, Honeybee Inn has been carefully maintained and improved while preserving the craftsmanship and architectural character that make this historic home so special.

For a buyer wishing to continue the B&B, Honeybee Inn is offered substantially turnkey. Most guest-room and common-area furnishings and décor, bedding, linens, operational inventory and other items used to operate the inn are intended to remain. Personal belongings and specifically identified personal furnishings, artwork and décor are excluded unless separately negotiated. Detailed inventory information is available so buyers can clearly understand what is included.

Honeybee Inn is intentionally operated at a manageable pace by a single owner rather than being operated to maximize occupancy or revenue. The owner handles virtually every aspect of the property and business, with only limited housekeeping assistance during busy periods and lawn service. The inn currently uses no paid advertising, creating an opportunity for a new owner or couple interested in pursuing a more growth-oriented hospitality business through additional marketing, staffing, occupancy and offerings.

The property has also hosted beautiful, intimate weddings and small private gatherings. For a future owner interested in boutique events and special occasions, Honeybee offers possibilities for this type of small-scale hospitality experience.

Guests currently enjoy inviting living and dining areas, a library, porches and outdoor spaces. The lower level is presently used as the owner's private space and includes a distinctive speakeasy-style bar and gathering area.

Continuing the bed-and-breakfast is entirely optional. A buyer who falls in love with the property but has no desire to become an innkeeper may simply make this extraordinary historic Queen Anne a private residence.

Whether the next owner chooses to continue the established inn, grow the hospitality business, explore intimate events and group experiences, or simply call this remarkable property home, Honeybee Inn offers an opportunity to create its next chapter.
