4,792 square feet of commercial building 3,000 square feet consisting of 3 rental units 5 Acres of Land


The property is located on Hwy 88/Apache Trail, and well visible by travelers as they enter the Tonto National Preserve which includes: Tortilla Flat; Canyon and 3 additional lakes; hiking in the renown Lost Dutchman Superstition Mountains; and several camp grounds. The property is also minutes from a City Center which features Museums and other attractions inspired by the rich Western History of the Area. In addition, the property is just 8 miles from the upscale residential and commercial Gold Canyon with its (5) Champion length golf courses, homes, resorts, restaurants and shopping, and 30 miles from well- known Scottsdale, Arizona.
The full service restaurant features approximately 4,200 square feet indoors serving 150 patrons including a full bar and dance floor. The outside patio currently exceeds 10,000 square feet and provides full service seating for 490 customers. In addition, there is a drink window, an elevated stage, which also provides lockable storage, a small gift shop, a large dance floor, and a rear barn which houses a food truck which is operable at the busiest times. The barn is currently permitted and being remodeled to add water, electrical, insulation, drywall, and an additional drink window, for an additional 592 square feet.
Corral can accommodate up to 40 “parked” horses, currently overlooking the patio area, with a breathtaking Superstition Mountain backdrop. There is also a parking lot in front and on the side, and signage including a roadside marquee advertising the band and any special events. Signage is visible while driving on the US88/North Apache Trail. There are also two residential rental facilities on the property, with one currently rented to long time employees.
Competition:
Growth & Expansion:
There is limited competition in the area, and provides a unique venue for Phoenix Valley.
The Owners have doubled revenues over the last 10 years, developed a loyal tenured staff, and created a destination venue highly attended by patrons weekly – despite limited advertising that has been largely word of mouth. The five acre parcel is only partially developed, providing a significant development opportunity. The property is on city water, with an additional line in place for future expansion of the outside patio area, which can be done without inhibiting views of the Superstition Mountains. The liquor license is extremely valuable and provides a vertical market opportunity supporting “to go” needs of the travelers enroute to camping and other activities nearby. The rental units have been under-utilized and provide additional potential. Lastly, Filly’s could invest in cooperative advertising with well-established destination resort promotions driven by the area’s large tourism industry.
As a summary, there is an upside potential for physical expansion of the outdoor patio area, vertical expansion of adding “take-away” liquor and sundries, the addition of rental income, and marketing expansion by tapping into the destination coverage already in place in Metropolitan Phoenix.
