About this home
Golf-Cart to Dinner. Walk to Festivals. Come Home to Quiet. Tucked away on a beautifully wooded lot in historic Forest Hills, this updated 5-bedroom, 3-bath home delivers the best of downtown Ocean Springs living—without the noise that usually comes with it. You're a golf cart ride from restaurants, shops, and Front Beach, yet when you pull into the driveway, all you hear are the birds in the mature trees overhead. That's the magic of this location: festival weekends, date nights downtown, and morning beach walks are all minutes away, but home is a private, peaceful retreat wrapped in natural beauty. The flexible floor plan works however you live. Two bedrooms and two full baths on the main level are ideal for guests or multigenerational living. Upstairs you'll find 3 large bedrooms. The fifth bedroom makes a perfect flex space—home gym, office, playroom, or hobby room—so the house adapts as your needs change. Recent updates include fresh paint, new luxury vinyl plank flooring upstairs, remodeled baths, popcorn ceiling removal, refreshed outdoor spaces, and more. Inside you'll find cherry hardwood floors, custom trim work, granite countertops, stainless appliances, a gas range, and abundant natural light throughout. Start your mornings with coffee on the screened porch, where the only soundtrack is the wooded backyard just beyond the screen. Entertain on the oversized deck, or simply unwind under the trees. No flood insurance required. Metal roof. Storm shutters. Plenty of room for boats, golf carts, and outdoor toys. This isn't just a home—it's the Ocean Springs lifestyle buyers are searching for: all the energy of downtown, none of the noise....
