Former Jackson funeral home listed for $4 million as prime commercial property

JACKSON, NJ – A longtime funeral home property in Jackson has hit the market with an asking price of $4 million, offering nearly 8,000 square feet of commercial space at a high-traffic intersection along West Veterans Highway.

The site, located at 148 W. Veterans Highway near Leesville Road, spans 4.62 acres and includes three contiguous parcels zoned for neighborhood commercial use. According to the listing, the sale includes the real estate only — not the existing business — and presents redevelopment potential for medical, retail, or professional use.

The funeral was run by the Ryan home for funerals, which once operated two sites in Jackson. After the passing of Tim Ryan, the Cooksbridge Road location was sold and replaced by a commercial office building.

The site is also the home to an annual Veterans Day memorial to honor those lives lost during the Global War on Terror.

The property features an approximately 4,150-square-foot main building, a 2,200-square-foot four-car garage, and a two-bedroom, two-bath residence measuring roughly 1,400 square feet. An additional 2.4-acre wooded parcel is also included.

Listing materials describe the site as a “prime Jackson commercial opportunity” with dual road frontage and a signalized intersection that offers strong visibility and access. The paved lot contains more than 60 parking spaces and is positioned minutes from Six Flags Great Adventure, I-195, Hackensack Meridian Health Village, Jackson Memorial High School, and the Justice Sports Complex.

Zoned for more than 40 permitted uses, the property could accommodate a medical campus, professional offices, restaurant, bank, daycare, or retail plaza. The sale is contingent on bank approval.
