Well, it's not like Senile/Paranoid/Liar/Deranged/Coward Harry Reid still lives there- he's living the life of luxury at the Washington D.C Ritz Carlton.
From the LVRJ: All of this could be yours.
The casino and restaurant, the little motel, the block of storefronts dating to the early 1900s - it all went on the market Monday in a bulk sale that could reshape this sleepy desert town of about 800 people 60 miles south of Las Vegas.
For the listed price of just under $5 million, you can get 62 parcels of land totaling 41 acres and your very own window into Nevada's past.
The centerpiece of the sale, the Searchlight Nugget Casino, still offers coffee for a dime and slot machines that spit out actual coins. The place still lures customers in through
the smoke with prime rib on Sunday, pot roast on Wednesday and live card games on the weekend.
Warren and Verlie Doing built the Nugget in 1979, but much of Searchlight's business district along U.S. Highway 95 has been in the family's hands for more than 40 years.
Now the Doings are selling off their sizable piece of the town so their matriarch can retire just shy of her 89th birthday.
"I'm tired," Verlie said with a smile. "I'm 88. It's just time." http://www.lvrj.com/news/-5-million-will-buy-you-a-lot-of-tiny-searchlight-190503421.html
Not sure if you also get the Searchlight fire department and museum or the Harry Reid homestead.
But, if you get the Reid Homestead, think of all the fun you can have. Open a brothel at the house? How about the Clark County Tea Party headquarters at the house. Maybe Sharron Angle could buy it. Maybe we can use the site as the Yucca Mountain alternative or use the homestead to house all the thousands of people who Reid has put out of work and have Reid be a man-servant to all those he has thrown out of work.
so, if you want to buy 41 acres of desert this place may be the place for you.
