Welcome to a rare opportunity to own a private country estate just around the corner from downtown Vancleave and only minutes from downtown Ocean Springs -- close enough to enjoy local schools, shops, and daily conveniences, as well as the restaurants, boutiques, art scene, and Gulf Coast beaches of Ocean Springs -- yet tucked away in complete peace and privacy. This substantial brick residence offers nearly 4,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, ideal for a large or multi-generational family. The home features 3 true bedrooms plus 2 expansive bonus/flex rooms, providing exceptional versatility for guest suites, a home office, gym, media room, or play space. A substantial attic provides remarkable storage capacity and opportunity for future customization. The flexible layout allows the home to live far beyond a traditional floor plan. A tranquil creek winds along the rear of the property, while neighboring pastureland with horses and cattle provides scenic, unobstructed views -- a setting that feels worlds away from congestion. The land itself invites possibility: a custom pool, a covered veranda, gardens, a guest house, or children's play areas. This is space that is simply not available within city limits without a significant premium. Adding character and resilience to the property is a well-maintained hen house that proudly survived Hurricane Katrina and remains in excellent condition -- a small but meaningful detail that reflects the strength of this home and its setting. This is more than a home -- it's a place where space, nature, and privacy come together to create something lasting. The kind of property families hold onto, grow into, and return to for generations -- all within minutes of downtown Ocean Springs.
