Quintessential Gulf Hills retreat... Get ready to be charmed from the time you drive down the winding, tree-lined Poco Road, right up to the circular drive and porte cochere. You may not even make it past the front patio that sits tucked under a pergola enveloped in beautiful layers of natural greenery. You'll likely feel compelled to sit for a while...possibly even enjoy a cup of coffee. But then you'll remember, you're at a showing, this isn't your house (yet) and you'd better get to the business of looking around! Inside you'll find the perfect mix of authentic character (think tile, arched doorways and unique windows that give a bit of an ''Ishee'' vibe) and updates like granite counters, new stainless appliances and even a wine fridge! The list continues with a whole house generator, a great room with vaulted ceiling, a sitting room/office off the primary suite, expansive screened in back porch and a yard that you'll just have to see to appreciate. And back to that Primary suite - the bathroom and closet areas specifically. The owners have stayed true to it's original layout - and that's alright, but it really offers a fun opportunity for re-imagining. One of the best and possibly most valuable features of this home is that it sits on a double lot that does NOT require flood insurance for financing AND it remained high and dry through Hurricane Katrina! Whether it's the proximity to the delights of downtown Ocean Springs or the amenities of the neighborhood (golf course, Capone's Restaurant, The Sunset Lounge, gulf front tennis courts...) that's had Gulf Hills on your mind, you'll want to call to set up your showing asap. Showing times will be available beginning 10/22.

Single-Family Residential District
This is the most restrictive residential district. The principal use of land is for single family dwellings and related recreational, religious and educational facilities normally required to provide the basic elements of a balanced and attractive residential area. These areas are intended to be defined and protected from the encroachment of uses not performing a function appropriate to the residential environment. Internal stability, attractiveness, order and efficiency are encouraged by providing for adequate light, air and open space for dwellings and related facilities and through consideration of the proper functional relationships of each element. No farm animals or fowl are allowed in this residential district except on parcels of land of 1 acre or more. This district also does not allow modular homes, manufactured homes, mobile homes, or trailers, nor does it allow campers, travel trailers, tents or recreational vehicles to be used for living purposes.
