Built in 1922, the Canova Memorial Hospital is a rare commercial opportunity in the heart of Miner County, South Dakota — a structurally sound, architecturally distinctive building priced for the visionary buyer who understands what full rehab potential looks like.
WHAT'S ALREADY DONE
The two largest capital investments are behind you. In 2023, the building received a brand-new roof and new underground electrical service — work already completed and reflected in the asking price of $59,900. Water has also been run to the lot. The expensive unknowns are gone. What remains is the interior: new HVAC, plumbing, and finish work.
THE BUILDING
• 4,536 sq ft above grade across 2 full stories
• 9 numbered bedrooms on the second floor
• Multiple multi-purpose rooms on the first floor (reception, library, clinic/office spaces)
• Full basement
• 10-foot average story height — exceptional ceiling height throughout
• Plaster walls, original proportions, period-authentic character
• Masonry and stucco exterior
THE LOT
• 150 x 175 ft — approximately 0.60 acres
• Located on Church Street in Canova, Miner County, SD
• Taxes: $787/year. No HOA.
THE LOCATION
Canova sits in the middle of some of the finest upland bird hunting in North America. Miner County pheasant hunting draws buyers from across the country. The surrounding prairie is wide open, the skies are enormous, and the closest competition for a property like this doesn't exist.
POTENTIAL USES
— Hunting lodge for Miner County's world-class pheasant country
— Boutique hotel or inn (9 rooms already configured upstairs)
— Airbnb compound or short-term rental property
— Artist's loft or creative compound
— Film and television location (period-accurate 1920s institutional interior)

— Multi-unit residential conversion
Sold as-is. No contingencies. Buyers must provide pre-approval or verification of funds. Listing agent must be present for showings — use BrokerBay to schedule.
