Infamous Nevada brothel up for sale. The Love Ranch can be yours for $1.2 million
A once popular brothel that was the hotspot for many infamous encounters has landed on the real estate market in Amargosa Valley, Nevada, for $1.2 million.
The Love Ranch is a property that was owned by the late Dennis Hof. He owned several brothels in Nevada, including one that was featured in the HBO series, “Cathouse,” which ran from 2005 to 2014.
The brothel features 15 one-bedroom suites on the 75-acre desert property, the listing on Coldwell Banker says. It totals 10,000 square feet and includes a couple new kitchens, new bar, a backhoe, track hoe, an advertising truck and even a limousine.
Hof, who was an owner of multiple brothels in Nevada, died in 2018 on the ranch after celebrating his 72nd birthday, The Associated Press reported. Hof was a Republican candidate for the Nevada Assembly and defeated Democrat Lesia Romanov a month after his body was discovered by porn actor Ron Jeremy, AP said.
Gregory Hafen II was appointed to replace Hof in the Assembly District 36 seat, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.
The Love Ranch is also known for being the site where former NBA player Lamar Odom almost fatally overdosed in 2015.
According to Hof, Odom was staying at his home, which was attached to the ranch, when he was discovered unresponsive, AP reported.
The listing is held by Bob Fredlund of Coldwell Banker.
Amargosa Valley is about 89 miles northwest of Las Vegas.
