Remarks:

Located in a lush tropical setting along the brick streets of Gulfport’s downtown district, this unique masonry home sits on a large corner lot and features a legal upstairs rental apartment, offering exceptional flexibility for a variety of lifestyles. The main residence offers a three-bedroom, two-bath split floor plan, thoughtfully designed to accommodate a potential in-law suite. With a private entrance, the separate wing includes a bedroom with en suite bath, its own living area, and access to the backyard, while still allowing the home to function seamlessly as a full three-bedroom, two-bath residence. The interior has been extensively updated, featuring a custom kitchen with quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, pantry closet, stainless steel appliances, built-in convection oven and microwave, induction cooktop, and an oversized island with seating for up to eight. Additional highlights include newly refreshed bathrooms, new luxury vinyl plank flooring, hardwood floors in the formal living room and second and third bedrooms, and a spacious, tucked-away family room. The bonus room (currently used as a family room) adds 304 heated & cooled square feet (not reflected in public records), bringing the total to approximately 2, 167 square feet of living space. Outdoor spaces are equally impressive, with newly xeriscaped planting beds, mature tropical landscaping, and a picturesque koi pond surrounded by seasonal blooms. The fully fenced backyard and side yard feature new privacy fencing with a rolling gate, a paver driveway and patio, multiple entertaining areas, a 21-foot above-ground swim spa, and an outdoor shower. The legal second-floor studio apartment offers a private entrance and an expansive deck overlooking the backyard oasis. The two-story deck structure can also function as a covered carport if desired. With impact windows throughout, a natural gas whole-house generator, and roofs replaced in 2018 and 2020, this home offers both beauty and peace of mind. The home may also be sold furnished, offering a convenient turnkey opportunity if desired. Located in an X flood zone with no flood insurance required, and just a short distance to downtown Gulfport, Gulfport Beach, parks, tennis courts, the library, and local shops and restaurants, this home offers a rare opportunity to live, host, and invest all in one.
