Description

Located high and dry in Gulfport’s sought-after flood zone X, this spacious home offers over 2,000 square feet of living space, blending eclectic charm with practical updates. With four bedrooms and two baths, the layout is both versatile and expansive, featuring a formal living room with classic arches leading to three front bedrooms and a shared hall bath.

The galley kitchen, equipped with stainless steel appliances, connects seamlessly to a formal dining room, which offers access to a variety of spaces. The fourth bedroom, currently used as a serene meditation retreat, is the largest and boasts French doors, a walk-in closet, and the flexibility to serve as a private primary suite, home office, or cozy den. The adjacent laundry room doubles as a workout area, featuring tile floors, a large built-in closet/pantry, and a private second bathroom.

At the rear of the home is a sprawling family room, which includes an additional 110 square feet of heated and cooled living space not reflected in public records. This bonus area enhances the home’s functionality and leads to a tranquil screened porch, perfect for unwinding while overlooking the low-maintenance backyard with a handy storage shed and side alley access. The property is surrounded by mature, maintained landscaping, offering privacy and a peaceful retreat from the street.

The current owners have thoughtfully maintained and upgraded the home, installing a 200-amp electric panel, attic insulation, updated windows throughout, gutters with LeafFilter, gutter guard protection, new 2022 vinyl fencing in back yard, a new roof in 2019, new plumbing from the house to the main line, and a water heater in 2023. Located just a short drive from Gulfport’s vibrant downtown, you’ll have access to an array of restaurants, markets, festivals, and nightlife, making this home an ideal blend of character, comfort, and community.
