Property Description
This is your chance to own The Onward Store, located on the corner of Highway 61 and Highway 1 in the south Mississippi delta. The building reeks with historical significance, as Onward is the area where President Roosevelt refused to shoot a caged bear , hence the name ''Teddy Bear'' was born. The building has been a full service restaurant with gift shop and accessories, and has been a favorite for hunters and tourists alike. Highway 61 is the designated Blues Trail of Mississippi, and Highway 1 leads to the Mississippi River. It is located in Sharkey County. The building was constructed in 1913, according to the owner, and has a seating area for customers as well as a back porch area with a view of Deer Creek. It has 3 restrooms and there is a good bit of kitchen equipment, such as deep fryers commercial grade stoves and refrigerators. The HVAC needs repairing or replaced, and there may be some exterior work needed. The property encompasses 5 acres of land , so there is plenty room there for further development of cabins or other improvements. There is gas to the building and it appears water is from the Tallulah water association. This is truly a destination spot, so why not drop what you are doing and head 30 miles north of Vicksburg, up Highway 61 and go check it out ...
