Description:
Night. (...) You're driving seventy-five miles an hour on a lonely stretch of interstate. Your headlights carve a narrow tunnel through the dark. (... ) And then—suddenly—it's there. A building, drenched in light, glowing like a beacon against the void. You search for answers. A sign. A name. A clue. Maybe you even tap the brake... stealing one more second to understand. Now imagine that building is YOURS. And the message those travelers discover... is the one you left behind. (... ) Because when visibility becomes power, and first impressions last forever... you've crossed over... into The Spotlight Zone.''* 4,000 square feet heated and cooled cement block building divided between offices and storage. Add to that another 1,715 SF, 22' by 78' long addition built back when a Harley dealership owned the place for bike repairs. BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE! This 5,715 building sits on 4.3 acres! C3 Highway Commercial zoning. Please download the marketing package and check out the two pages of the things you can do with the property by right or by permit. As a bonus, there's a 3 bedroom, 2 bath mobile home needing some TLC that can be used as a break room for your crews. This property has more history than most marriages. And now, the rest of the story About 25 years ago, Fortress Mausoleums bought this spot. Why? Because they figured out how to build really sharp-looking mausoleums without charging ''mortgage-your-soul'' prices. After they built their plant just half a mile away, they snagged this property to show off their single and multi-unit forever condos to drivers on I-10. And yes, that spotlight you see? 100% their idea. Sales shot through the roof. If billboards could talk, they'd be jealous. Fortress is still out there today, making custom mausoleums for folks who would rather not be cremated or buried—because, let's face it, sometimes doctors do call it a little too soon. Directions (because GPS can't tell jokes): Take I-10, get off at Hwy 57, hang a left at the Texaco station. Boom—you're on Campbell Road. The plant will be on your left, complete with a sign made of the same material as their mausoleums. Durable. Classy. Forever. The building: This place was never about handling bodies. Let's clear that up right now. Some Realist reports say ''Funeral and Crematory Services,'' but nope—this was strictly sales and logistics. Ordering steel, moving composites, shipping product. There has never been a body in this building. Not even ''just a little dead,'' as Mad Max might say. The flat metal roof? Recently coated. Could use a touch-up here and there, but nothing dramatic. The lights turn on, the A/C cranks cold air through both the office and warehouse. The 1,761 SF stick-built addition needs a bit of TLC—some wall and roof support work. Still, it's worth keeping. There's also an 850 SF mobile home out back. Needs attention, but I've sold parks with worse units that now rent for nearly $1,000/month. Who should buy this: Contractors, business owners, or anyone who likes telling their friends, ''Yeah, my office used to be a mausoleum showroom.'' Great exposure, lots of space, and a built-in spotlight that already proved it can sell the heck out of a product.

Located just off I-10, this property benefits from easy access to major Gulf Coast arteries. The Mississippi Department of Transportation is currently executing a $212 million project to widen MS 57 from I-10 to Gautier-Vancleave Road, transforming it into a four-lane highway2. This will dramatically improve traffic flow and evacuation routes, boosting commercial appeal. Additionally, Ingalls Shipbuilding in nearby Pascagoula has secured a $9.6 billion multi-ship contract to build amphibious warships for the U.S. Navy4—a move expected to stimulate regional economic growth and demand for support services. With proximity to these developments, this property is perfectly positioned to benefit from increased traffic, workforce expansion, and business investment.
