Description

Dynamic Downtown Ocean Springs MS Opportunity INCREDIBLE LOCATION !!! Few locations capture the spirit and momentum of Ocean Springs quite like the corner of Washington Avenue and Bienville Boulevard. This parcel sits at the gateway to downtown a district nationally recognized for its arts, dining, and walkable coastal charm making it one of the most dynamic commercial opportunities on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Ocean Springs is more than just a beautiful small town; it's a year-round destination. The city's vibrant calendar of events from the Peter Anderson Arts & Crafts Festival, which draws over 100,000 visitors each November, to the Pleasant's Halloween Festival, Mardi Gras parades, and Live Oak Arts Festival brings a steady flow of foot traffic, energy, and commerce through its historic downtown streets. Add to that the weekly farmers markets, art walks, and a lively music scene, and you've got an environment where community and commerce thrive together. This property's proximity to all of it; restaurants, boutique shops, galleries, and the scenic Front Beach positions it as a front-row seat to Ocean Springs' ongoing boom. With the city's market seeing record-low vacancy rates, rising property values, and continued investment from local entrepreneurs and regional brands, the timing couldn't be better. Whether envisioned for retail, dining, professional services, or mixed-use, this site stands out not just for its visibility, but for its connection to the heartbeat of Ocean Springs â€'' a community that continues to grow, celebrate, and attract visitors from across the Gulf Coast.
