Prime Location
740 E. Burgess Road presents a rare 1.24-acre commercial pad site opportunity within one of Pensacola’s most active interstate commercial corridors. Positioned near I-10 and I-110, the site offers exceptional accessibility, visibility, and proximity to major retail, hospitality, and medical demand drivers.
The property is adjacent to Courtyard, SpringHill Suites, and TownePlace Suites by Marriott, placing it within an established hospitality cluster that supports steady guest and business traveler activity. Directly across the corridor, University Town Plaza serves as a major regional retail destination anchored by national brands including anchor tenants BJ’s Wholesale Club, JCPenney, Academy Sports + Outdoors, Toys R Us, and Floor & Decor.
The site is strategically positioned near three of the region’s leading hospitals. HCA Florida West Hospital is located approximately one mile north, while Ascension Sacred Heart and Baptist Hospital are just over one mile to the south. This proximity enhances the property’s appeal for restaurant, retail, and service-oriented commercial uses.
While ownership would prefer a retail or restaurant concept, the seller remains open to reviewing all viable development opportunities.
