Strategic Location Along the Houston-Beaumont Corridor
Location is one of the most critical factors in commercial real estate, and this property delivers.

The property sits just three-quarters of a mile from the Interstate 10 exit ramp at the Highway 73 interchange, providing convenient accessibility for customers, employees, and commercial transportation.
In addition to serving interstate traffic, Winnie acts as a gateway to the Bolivar Peninsula and Crystal Beach. Thousands of beachgoers travel through this corridor throughout the year, creating additional consumer traffic that supports retail, hospitality, restaurant, and travel-related businesses.
