Exceptional Cash-Flowing Shopping Center Opportunity
South Square is a prime neighborhood shopping center and storage facility featuring 15 retail units (17 with splitting) and 52 storage units situated on approximately 2.36 acres of prime commercial property with over 400 feet of frontage along US-19/98 (±32,000 AADT) within the Tampa–St. Petersburg MSA, the 18th largest metropolitan area in the United States.
This well-maintained center offers a versatile mix of suite sizes ranging from 720 SF to 3,200 SF and is occupied by a diverse tenant base including medical and professional offices, retail businesses, beauty services, and other long-standing local tenants. The storage component includes 52 units, providing an additional and complementary income stream.
With significant room for growth, investors have the opportunity to enhance revenue by aligning below-market rental rates and implementing standard NNN expense recoveries for CAM, insurance, and real estate taxes, which are currently limited. Combined with modest rent adjustments and the leasing of two vacant retail units, a new owner has the potential to increase net operating income by more than 23%, achieving an estimated 6.79% stabilized cap rate, while maintaining minimal vacancy in the storage component.

Logistic Details:
-County Road 486 runs entirely along West Norvell Bryant Highway. It runs West to East from SR 44 east of Crystal River into US-41 in Hernando, just south of the southern terminus of SR 200. The route was once the former SR 486. County Road 486 spans 4 lanes, is almost entirely a divided highway, and is flanked by a parallel bicycle path on the south side.
-County Road 491 is Lecanto Highway, a bi-county South to North road that begins at the Hernando-Citrus County Line in Oak Grove near the Withlacoochee State Forest and ends at SR 200 in Stoke's Ferry, just south of the intersection with the northern segment of CR 39. It was formerly designated as SR 491.

-County Road 44 (often marked as County Road 44W) exists as the western tip of old Florida State Road 44, south of "Downtown" Crystal River. The suffix "W" was most likely added to not confuse this section with State Road 44, to the north, and to show its location by being west of US 19 and US 98(SR 55). As with the majority of these types of 'coastal spur' routes, in West Central Florida, it is county-maintained.
-U.S. Route 19 (US-19) runs 264 miles (425 km) along Florida's West Coast from an interchange with U.S. Route 41 in Memphis, Florida, south of Tampa, and continues to the Georgia border north of Monticello, Florida. Newly 6 lane Highway was constructed from the Hernando County line to Fort Island Trail and US 19 in Crystal River, Florida.

The Suncoast Parkway is just 68 Miles 1 hour and 15 mins from Tampa making it a great commuting Highway for the workforce seeking to be outside of the Tampa traffic. The Veterans Expressway and Suncoast Parkway is a north–south toll road near the Florida Gulf Coast. Maintained and operated by Florida's Turnpike Enterprise, this 68-mile transportation corridor extends from State Road 60 in Tampa, north to State Road 44 near Lecanto.
