In Long Beach MS, It is as unique as its name, As a traveler recently seeking directions to the beach and the city center just 5 blocks away, a local girl used The words '' The Ferry Love House'' As a way to give directions to the beach. And it stuck ! You'll see from the road an Elegant stone Mailbox and bench which leads through a full driveway of river rocks leading to Solid stone columns illuminating the front of this charming and impeccably done land mark.

The light travels in every inch of this reflective interior which has clearstories above most walls, and glass within walls sparkles with light even on a rainy day. The 1250 square foot space had an addition 35' x 15' which is indistinguishable from the main house built in the 50's and completely made new with every system being state of the art. It is the ''essence of turn key''. The design of the house has a unique flow of multiple paths from room to room. The full wrap around porch actually connects the master to the ten foot tall addition. The hard wired ceiling speakers with a sound system make this a true entertainment area. As well, the structure of the home is paramount to both the beauty of the large beams and a twelve inch back wall designed as a storm wall. The quiet nature of the unique lot, set back and hidden from the road is where the 150 year old oak tree sings with the song of birds and can be heard through out the house especially in the mornings. The privacy and serenity of the home within this very private lot allows guests to be shrouded by the lack of visible neighbors from behind the fence as you and your guests can relax with complete privacy. from all sides The Ferry Love house with it's tall ceilings and as well use of all natural materials, Plaster walls ,hidden pockets, An espresso counter, and specialty elements too long to list .
