Overview

Description

This property is located immediately across the street from the Scott County Courthouse and would be ideal for professional services or retail. Situated at the corner of West Main Street and First Street on the Courthouse Square, this building features frontage on two-sides and contains almost 3,600 square feet on interior space. Though built in 1930, the building has been well maintained and periodically updated through the years. In 2024, a new metal roof was installed on this building. Currently, the open floor plan provides wide open spaces for retail or service use. However, the building could easily be reconfigured for a variety of professional uses or dining and entertainment. Downtown Forest, MS is going through a major revitalization, and this building qualifies for historic district tax credits related to any qualified renovation.
