SELLER SAYS, 'BRING AN OFFER!!' Spacious Estate Home with Timeless Character and Endless Potential! Located in the heart of downtown Hattiesburg, this classic multi-level home offers an abundance of space and a versatile layout with multiple living areas that make it easy to reimagine for modern living. Step onto the welcoming brick front porch framed by shutters and mature landscaping with camellias, boxwoods, and gardenias leading the way to the entry. Inside you will find a traditional foyer that opens to a bright front living room once a screened porch, now enclosed and full of natural light. The kitchen features ceramic tile flooring, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Upper glass-front cabinetry adds extra storage above the standard cabinets and a built-in microwave sits above the range. A mosaic tile backsplash and wood ceiling beams add warmth and detail and there is also a walk-in pantry. The kitchen flows easily into the breakfast area which overlooks the private backyard and opens to a wood deck with a pergola. The rear living room offers a cozy retreat with a built-in fireplace. It features custom lower cabinetry, open shelving, and natural wood-wrapped beams that extend across the ceiling. A recessed dry bar with upper and lower cabinets is tucked neatly behind louvered doors, and French doors open to the rear deck. The dining room near the front of the home features elegant crown and chair molding, beadboard paneling, and a large window with storm protection. The hallway bath off the foyer includes a cultured marble vanity, cast iron tub with marble surround, and accent lattice divider for privacy. Just beyond is a bedroom that could serve as an office, offering two closets, paneled walls, and high ceilings with fan light fixture. The primary bedroom is part of a later addition with a brick exterior and slab foundation. This spacious suite includes double windows with screens, crown molding, carpet flooring, and an ensuite bath with dual vanities, a makeup counter, cultured marble sinks, and a fiberglass tub-shower insert. The walk-in closet features extensive shelving and hanging storage on all sides. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms share a hall bath with a glass door shower, pedestal sink, and vinyl flooring. Both bedrooms are carpeted and feature crown or beadboard accents and peaceful backyard views. A walk-in attic provides convenient storage. The lower-level addition from the early 1990s adds even more flexibility with luxury vinyl plank flooring, a sitting room or bedroom with private bath, and a kitchenette area that could easily be restored. The full bath features cultured marble counters, a tub-shower insert, and linen storage. This level also includes a spacious laundry room with direct access to the two car garage. Three HVAC systems serve the home- two downstairs and one upstairs- with the lower unit replaced in 2022. The property has gas heat and excellent ventilation throughout. Outside, mature landscaping creates a beautiful backdrop with pine, magnolia, and holly trees, along with flowering shrubs and vines. The backyard is partially fenced and could easily be enclosed. This downtown gem combines vintage character with substantial space, ready for updates to make it shine again. Schedule your private viewing today!
