Strawberry Station is a high-visibility commercial property and fully operating destination located on U.S. Highway 50 in historic Strawberry, California, a gateway community on the west slope of the Sierra Nevada and a primary corridor into the Tahoe Basin. The town has served travelers since the 1850s and remains a vital hub for recreation, tourism, and mountain travel.- -The property is surrounded by iconic outdoor recreation. Nearby Lover's Leap is internationally recognized for world-class rock climbing, with hundreds of established routes on dramatic granite walls. The area is also known for winter ice climbing, backcountry skiing, hiking, rafting along the American River, and year-round access to public lands. Sierra at Tahoe ski resort is located just minutes to the east and has become a favored destination for travelers approaching from the west.- -Strawberry Station benefits from consistent year-round traffic driven by recreation, tourism, and second-home ownership throughout the American River corridor. With limited lodging currently operating in Strawberry, the Station functions as an essential service stop and gathering place for locals and visitors.- -The property includes an established general store and caf offering convenience retail, specialty coffee, food items, and cold beverages. An on- and off-site beer and wine license allows patrons to enjoy beverages outdoors at picnic tables or during seasonal live music events, making the Station a community anchor during peak seasons.- -Upstairs space supports a rental and service operation offering climbing gear, ski and snowboard equipment, snowshoes, and tuning services, along with office space and flexibility for future residential-style or expanded commercial use, subject to buyer verification and approvals.- -Approximately 446 square feet is occupied by the United States Postal Service, generating approximately $10,000 per year in ancillary lease income.- -The property features extensive infrastructure including a drive-through chain-up station, custom woodworking shop, diesel backup generator serving the entire site, more than 1,200 square feet of mezzanine storage, a car lift, and equipment supporting efficient year-round operations.- -Current ownership has continuously cared for and improved the property since 2012. Strawberry Station represents a rare opportunity to acquire a landmark Highway 50 commercial property with established operations, supplemental income, and meaningful future potential.
