There’s a desert town in Nevada that could be yours for a cool $8 million.<\/p>\n
Cal Nev Ari is a 640-acre town located roughly 60 miles south of Las Vegas. About 350 people live there.<\/p>\n
The sale includes the town’s facilities — a casino, restaurant, motel, convenience store and a mobile home park — plus an additional 520 acres that remain undeveloped.<\/p>\n
“It’s a very large tract of contiguous land, which is rare in Nevada since the federal government owns 80% of land in the state,” explained listing agent Fred Marik.<\/p>\n
There’s been interest from buyers with different business plans, including a marijuana resort, residential buildings and a retirement community.<\/p>\n

Pilots might also be interested in the town. It was an abandoned World War II airstrip for General George Patton and currently has a residential airpark with a dirt runway. Many of the homes have airplane hangars.<\/p>\n
“People can walk out of their living room and fly down the taxiway and take off,” said Marik.<\/p>\n
The city was founded in 1965 by Nancy Kidwell with her first husband. The 78-year-old founder owns all the businesses in the town and employs around 27 people.<\/p>\n
The sale comes with a few stipulations: The airport must remain in business as Kidwell Airport and the town must keep its name for 30 years.<\/p>\n
“She is really invested in the town. She built it from scratch with her hands,” said Marik.<\/p>\n
Kidwell originally put the town up for sale in 2010 for $17 million, but it went off the market after the Great Recession devastated the state’s real estate market. It went back on the market for the lower asking price in February.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
