Motivated Seller!! Bring All Offers!! Now Offered with 3 Commercial Lots - More Land, More Opportunity, and a New Lower Price! Welcome to an exceptional rural compound in the funkily friendly town of Gerlach, Nevada - the gateway to the legendary Black Rock Desert, home to 800,000 acres of wilderness and the world-famous Burning Man Festival. This distinctive residential/multi-use property sits on three contiguous General Commercial-zoned lots right on Main Street. Two of the lots are fully improved, including the main residence and garages, while the third is a vacant commercial parcel offering room for expansion or additional development. Located just 105 miles northeast of Reno in one of Nevada's tiniest cities, this is a truly one-of-a-kind opportunity to own a versatile, high-potential property in a region known for recreation, art, exploration, and raw beauty. The home features 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, including a spacious primary suite with an oversized walk-in closet and attached craft/sewing/storage room. The updated, open-concept kitchen and living area includes a built-in western-style bar with sink, wine fridge, mini fridge, and ice maker - ideal for entertaining. Enjoy modern comfort with central heating and air conditioning, a newer roof, windows, flooring, and a long list of thoughtful updates throughout. One of the home's most unique features is the expansive, fenced western-themed backyard and patio, which incorporates the oldest building in Gerlach—now reimagined with a functional mining trough feeding a koi pond. This private, character-rich space is perfect for gatherings, weddings, BBQs, or even commercial events. Additional improvements include six garage bays—an oversized 3-car attached garage plus a detached garage/workshop/storage building, ideal for hobbyists or business use. Whether you're looking for a private residence, desert getaway, Airbnb, event venue, or commercial enterprise, this is the only GC-zoned property currently available on Gerlach's Main Street, and now includes an additional vacant commercial lot for even greater flexibility. With the price recently reduced, this property represents unmatched value and potential in a truly irreplaceable setting.
