118

Description

Located on the vibrant and historic Courthouse Square in downtown Oxford, Mississippi, 118 Courthouse Square offers a unique opportunity to own one of the citys most iconic commercial properties. Currently home to the world-famous Ajax Diner, this building is not only a cornerstone of Oxfords dining scene but also a significant piece of the citys architectural and civic heritage.

Constructed circa 1875, the building is locally identified as the former Oxford Opera House and City Hall. Historic Sanborn Fire Insurance maps support this identification, though notable alterations to the buildings footprint particularly at the rear and interior occurred during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. In approximately 1940, a fire prompted significant changes to the faade, resulting in many of the exterior elements seen today.

Ideally situated in the heart of Oxford, this high-visibility property benefits from constant foot traffic and a vibrant downtown atmosphere, just steps from The University of Mississippi. Surrounded by boutiques, professional offices, galleries, and restaurants, the location is second to none for commercial viability.
