Beyond a private gated entrance, a paved, winding driveway stretches across rolling pastures to this remarkable 27.2± acre estate, offering a peaceful retreat for those who value privacy, space, and the beauty of country living while still enjoying the comforts of a thoughtfully crafted home. The custom-built main residence showcases exceptional craftsmanship and architectural character featuring Rockwood plantation shutters throughout. Inside, the breathtaking great room serves as the architectural centerpiece, a stunning floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with a mantel modeled after one at the Biltmore Estate framed by dramatic cathedral pine tongue-and-groove ceilings and an elegant open staircase with decorative wrought-iron railing leading to a loft overlook above, creating a grand yet inviting gathering space. At the heart of the home is a gourmet chef's kitchen featuring custom solid-wood cabinetry, expansive granite countertops, high-end appliances, and a large entertainer's island designed for both everyday living and hosting. The kitchen flows effortlessly into a sunlit breakfast area and a refined formal dining room highlighted by a beautiful chandelier and a distinctive hand-painted mural by artist Barbara Paroni, adding a memorable artistic touch. The home offers four spacious bedrooms and three full bathrooms, providing ample room for family and guests. The primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with direct access to an expansive office/theatre living room with surround sound. This versatile space can easily function as a media room, game room, gym, or additional living area and is ideal for writers or anyone working from home. Outdoor living is just as impressive. A large screened porch, spacious deck, and in-ground saltwater pool overlook the picturesque acreage, offering perfect spaces for relaxing or entertaining while taking in the surrounding views. The property features two ponds, fruit trees, ample gardening space and full fencing with three separate gated entrances, creating both beauty and functionality. Near the water's edge sits an enchanting Victorian-style playhouse with a loft overlooking the pond, adding a unique and whimsical element to the landscape. Adding even more versatility, the estate includes a separate five-bedroom residence with one full bath and two half baths. Zoned commercial, this additional building offers endless possibilities for extended family, guest accommodations, business use, or potential rental income. Despite its peaceful, private setting, the property is conveniently located just a short drive from Gulfport with easy access to I-59, providing the perfect balance of country tranquility and city convenience. With some of the most breathtaking sunsets in Mississippi, this extraordinary estate offers a rare opportunity to own a property where lifestyle, beauty, and endless possibilities come together.
