BEACH LIFE AMID THE SHADY OAKS. Charming 3 BR/2 BA cottage in PRIME location on very deep shaded lot with four majestic old live oak trees. Very short stroll to the beach. High elevation, Flood Zone X; did not flood in Hurricane Katrina. Brand new roof and Energy Star central air heat pump HVAC installed about six months ago. Recently renovated with luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout, new tall Energy Star windows, new doors and walls, fresh paint on interior and exterior, and more. The fully fenced back yard is perfect for pets and kids, and this deep lot is easily long enough to add a guest cottage and/or swimming pool. Enter into your spacious front family room with lofty vaulted cathedral ceiling, and proceed through the foyer (perfect for an office nook) to the kitchen with dining area, and then to the front two bedrooms, which are adjoined by a convenient adjacent Jack and Jill bathroom with bathtub/shower. Enjoy your privacy from the kids (or allow your vacation renters to enjoy privacy from other couples) with a separate and spacious Master Suite with rear private entry, tall sunny windows throughout, recessed lighting, and private Master Bath with clawfoot bathtub. Relax, read and have your coffee on your private and secluded screened-in side porch, surrounded by live oaks, greenery and nature. Beach days are just a short stroll away, and it's also walking or golf cart distance to Olde Town Bay St Louis bars, restaurants, shops and entertainment. This could be your tranquil getaway vacation home, or serve as your investment property, as it has a well-established history as a long-term, short-term and vacation rental with robust income. The cottage can be sold fully-furnished and turn-key, ready to rent, including its stackable washer/dryer. This cottage could be the peaceful escape or the investment opportunity you've been looking for.
