Step into the timeless charm of this beautifully preserved 1930's cottage, ideally located on Seal Ave,( which was formerly known as Hogs Alley, one of the Pass' first streets.) which is just off prestigious Scenic Drive in the heart of Pass Christian. Nestled under a canopy of mature trees, this 2,249 square foot home blends vintage character with some thoughtful updates, perfect for full time living or a serene coastal retreat. It has truly been an hidden gem behind the lush greenery and picket fence, but original rough milled old growth cypress still clads the exterior of the house,with many original windows and french doors. From the moment you walk through the turquoise front door, you're welcomed into the bright , inviting interiors featuring high ceilings, wood floors, and abundant natural light. The home's layout offers multiple living areas, including a formal dining area with cozy sitting areas with decorative fireplaces and built in shelving. The porch ,is now a sunroom, wrapped in French doors and windows, that creates an ideal reading nook, or breakfast room. The kitchen is cheerful and spacious with soft green cabinetry, modern quartz countertops, new flooring, and new stainless appliances. A new gas tankless hot water tank was installed and the HVAC system is only a couple of years old. There was an addition in the past to add a flex space with valuted ceilings, exposed beams, a full wall of bookshelves and loft area, that would be a perfect bedroom suite, or studio. There are two vintage bathrooms that honor the history of the home. The primary bedroom is huge and leads to a quaint courtyard with pavers and stones, that connects to the kitchen and side yard. There is a storage building with a single car garage, and parking area. Just a short walk or golf cart ridge to the beach, downtown shops and restaurants and harbor. This home is a rare find in one of the coast's most beloved historic neighborhoods- where charm, comfort and location come together.

The main house is structurally unchanged and has original rough mill sawn old growth cypress that clads the exterior of the house, many original windows and french doors, some with original hand rolled window panes. The front porch has been enclosed, to create a charming sunroom; and there has been an addition of an art studio that is perfect for a third bedroom. The entire house has a NEWER and WORKING CENTRAL HEAT AND AIR SYSTEM, even though window units still appear. There is an Interesting mix of wood and tile flooring throughout, 2 vintage bathrooms, a spacious living room with fireplace and built in bookcases, and a generous dining room with period lighting. Mature plantings surround the property, so the house has truly been a hidden gem! There is a stone patio area that connects the kitchen and spacious master bedroom which would create a magical New Orleans style courtyard. On the north side, driveway parking, single garage, or room for a small pool. Truly a charming early circa 1900 cottage on the oldest street in the Pass, originally called Hog's Alley. A rare opportunity to be able to restore such a property, that has withstood the test of time and enjoy all Pass Christian can offer. Location is superb, short walk to coffee shop and restaurants and daily walks on Scenic Drive.
