Napa Soda Springs is Available for the First Time in Decades
For the first time in 40 years, Napa Soda Springs, one of the most historically significant and largest continuous parcels in Napa Valley, is on the market, offering many opportunities for a new owner.
NAPA, CA—Napa Soda Springs, one of the largest continuous parcels in Napa Valley, is available for the first time in more than 40 years. GlobeSt.com learns the listing price is $50 million, according to Land Hub.
Designated by Napa County as a Landmark of Historical Significance, stone remnants of the historic resort remain, inviting restoration and adaptive reuse. The property was once home to the prestigious Napa Soda Springs Resort, which was completed by Colonel JP Jackson in 1874. Nearly all the buildings were constructed from stone quarried in the mountains nearby, according to Explore Napa.
Into the early 1900s, it welcomed socially prominent families to enjoy the resort’s mountain air and healing waters. Visitors to the hotel could view a wide stretch of the valley, bowl or play tennis or billiards. They could hunt, fish, ride horses or stroll among the olive and almond, citrus and apple trees on the grounds’ 100 acres.
Napa Soda Spring’s varied and diverse topography features the healing waters of Soda Creek, an 80-foot waterfall, vistas of Poppy Hill, the magma rock-strewn slope of Babylon Plane and many free-flowing mineral springs. Due to their taste and health-giving properties, these historically significant springs were often bottled during the resort’s long history.
Located at 2000 Soda Springs Rd. and 15 minutes from downtown Napa, the parcel is central to the culinary, wine and cultural experiences that draw visitors from around the globe. Numerous wineries and restaurants are all within a short drive via the Silverado Trail or the Mt. St. Helena Highway.
