About this home
This is not a home where the details were an afterthought. It's a home where the details were the very foundation of its design. Every space has been thoughtfully considered, every feature has a purpose, and the craftsmanship tells a story of its own. Designed for entertaining, creating, pursuing the things you love, and finding comfort in life's quieter moments, this is a home that truly stands apart.
Set on approximately 10 acres in Hattiesburg, just MINUTES from Forrest General Hospital, Corner Market, Southern Miss, and the heart of town, this remarkable property offers privacy, character, and an extraordinary level of thoughtful design.
Antique entry doors welcome you inside, where even the wallpaper holds a surprise: a beautiful second layer revealed when the light catches it just right. & that's only the beginning! Offering approximately 5,463 square feet, the home features 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, formal dining, a breakfast room, a bay-window sitting area, a hidden wet bar connecting to the living room, an office, two laundry rooms, and an expansive playroom/flex space. A guest apartment accessed through the attached two-car garage includes its own bathroom and kitchen area.
And then there's the kitchen. A chef's kiss, quite literally, and a space that deserves a description all its own. Rich walnut cabinetry conceals metal interiors and storage so thoughtfully planned that opening the drawers is part of the experience. Discover pull-out shelving, custom spice racks, dedicated spaces for baking sheets, and a lift that brings heavy countertop appliances within easy reach. Cooking enthusiasts will appreciate two built-in ovens, a microwave, two warming drawers, separate Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer units, two dishwashers, six gas burners and two electric cooking elements, instant hot water at the sink, a trash compactor, and a walk-in pantry. Beautiful brick floors lead into the breakfast area and up to a charming bay-window nook that invites you to linger over morning coffee.
The primary suite offers a fireplace, sitting area, two separate walk-in closets, individual vanities with abundant storage, and an updated walk-in shower. Another spacious downstairs bedroom has a built-in desk, walk-in closet, and private bath. Upstairs, a custom stair rail leads to two bedrooms joined by a thoughtfully designed Jack-and-Jill bath with both a separate shower and tub/shower combination. Each bedroom has a large walk-in closet. The fifth bedroom features soaring ceilings, skylights, a private bath, and a walk-in closet.
An office with built-in bookshelves and exposed brick opens to an enormous playroom or flex space, with access to a spacious floored walk-in attic. A second laundry room upstairs means no hauling baskets between floors. It's those practical, purposeful details that make this home so memorable.
Outside, warm wood accents bring character to the back porch, while a patio, gazebo, arbor, fruit trees, and a lovingly built playhouse invite you to enjoy the grounds. There's a powered storage barn and a detached workshop with water, electricity, and an attached three-car garage, offering room for hobbies, projects, and whatever brings you joy.
What makes this property extraordinary isn't simply its size or its impressive list of features. It's the thought behind it all. The purposeful storage, the gathering spaces, the quiet corners, and the countless details you might never expect until you experience them yourself. Some homes are difficult to describe because there's simply so much to say. This is one of them. Schedule your showing and discover this one-of-a-kind Hattiesburg home for yourself.
