A three minute walk straight out the front door puts you standing on a beautiful white sandy beach on the Gulf of Mexico. Beautiful historic Victorian home built in 1900 situated on Second Street in a very established and charming neighborhood graced by lovely plantings including camelias and numerous towering live oaks.

This neighborhood affords the opportunity for great walks with your family or your dog. This home has been completely updated and features the original high ceilings and heart pine floors. A wrap around porch with wicker furniture and a double "love" swing greet newcomers as they ascend the front porch.

The front door opens to a spacious living room with plenty of seating and television and fireplace for entertaining. To the left are French doors that open to a lovely front reading room abundant with windows and natural light allowing house guests to get lost in their favorite novel. This room with hard pine flooring and high ceiling is furnished with antiques and tiffany lamps and has the added comfort and convenience of having its own bathroom. The cozy couch opens up to a queen sized bed for your invited guests. The oversized formal dining room has a built-in cabinet with hard pine flooring and high ceiling. A wonderful setting to "wine and dine" your family and guests.

The main floor has two bedrooms each with a queen sized bed and private bathroom. The staircase leads to a separate bedroom upstairs with bathroom. The upstairs bedroom has numerous windows. The beckoning beach and beautiful Gulf of Mexico can be seen in the distance. The room is furnished with two queen size beds. A perfect room for a couple with kids or a place for all the kids. Two of the three bedrooms have their own TV with VHS and/or DVD.

The kitchen is a full sized kitchen including an island with stools and a dining table. The kitchen is the centerpiece of the house and its beauty will pleasantly surprise you. The kitchen's back door opens onto a very spacious wood deck as well as a brick patio both fully furnished with furniture as well as a gas grill. A very beautiful and spacious backyard with live oaks and copious amounts of shade await your coming. The property spans four city lots and therefore has plenty of room for parking vehicles for "Cruisin' the Coast" and for your boat and trailer or camper.

Downtown Gulfport is a short walk away. If you like to walk the ISLAND VIEW CASINO RESORT is also within walking distance. The gaming destinations along this 26 mile beach are second only to Vegas.

The 26 mile long beach is a gorgeous beach to explore with numerous wharfs, beach activities, shopping, beachcombing, and restaurants. Biloxi with its numerous casinos is just a few minutes away by car, bike or the local transportation.

The beach is home to the charming, small southern towns of Long Beach, Pass Christian and Bay St. Louis which are great for shopping for antiques. The area has over 20 golf courses including one of the "top ten" public golf courses in the country. The casinos and Biloxi coliseum offer grand entertainment and numerous live shows. The fabulous and historic town of New Orleans is only an hour away.

The Gulfport harbor offers daily excursions to Cat Island. The Gulf Islands National Seashore is only a dozen miles off the coast and affords great swimming and a quiet place to hang out on your boat.

  • This is a beautifully restored home with enough facilities for a large group and all the ammenities of home. We were in town for a family wedding and this house allowed us to stay with siblings we don't get to see very often. Once the children went to bed we were able to enjoy time together talking and playing cards. We had plenty of bathroom space and it is a short walk to the beach. We spent a lot of time on the front porch swing as well. The kitchen was fully equiped with enough cooking items to save a lot of money by eating in most meals. The owner was very easy to work with and I would highly recomend staying here. This will be our first choice if we go back to the area again.

  • We stayed at the house for threee nights with eight adults and had a wonderful time. The house was beautiful! We spent our time eating at restaurants, gambling at the casinos, and enjoying the home. We can't wait to visit again!

  • This house is great; it’s close to everything but in a very quite neighborhood where you can build an open pit fire for the family to sit around and talk. The kitchen will become the focal point for everything happening in the house. We had 12 people in the house and had plenty of space for everyone to sleep and plenty of space for people to relax. This is a must see and a must rent.
