Brokered by Marcus & Millichap and powered by RealINSIGHT Marketplace, 34 S Main St, Middletown, OH 45044 is the former U.S. Hotel, a three-story, 29,492 SF historic building on a 0.24-acre fee simple parcel in the heart of downtown Middletown. Originally constructed in 1831 as a coffee house and residence and converted to the U.S. Hotel in 1845, the property is a contributing structure within a National Register Historic District and was most recently operated as a mixed-use building with street-level retail and residential on the upper floors. The investment thesis centers on adaptive reuse: UC-C (Urban Center Core) zoning permits hotel, office, retail, multifamily residential, mixed-use, and live-work concepts, giving a buyer flexibility to restore, reposition, or redevelop the building around the strongest exit. Contributing-structure status creates potential eligibility for historic preservation tax credits. The Main Street location places the asset within Middletown's urban core, with regional access via I-75 and Dayton International Airport, and a 5-mile trade area of 81,831 residents and 33,799 households.
