Property Description
Just one block from the beach, this 2-bed shotgun house in Gulfport, MS places you within walking distance of the Gulfport Harbor, Mississippi Aquarium, coffee shops, restaurants, shopping, and coastal entertainment. Originally built around the turn of the century, this historic cottage combines timeless Gulf Coast character with thoughtful updates and an unbeatable location. Located at 1620 2nd Street in Gulfport, this charming 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage was renovated by Carl Padgett in the 1980s and updated again in 2006, preserving much of its original architectural appeal while enhancing comfort and functionality. High ceilings throughout the home create a spacious, open atmosphere, while beautiful heart pine floors extend through most living areas and bedrooms, adding warmth and authenticity. The kitchen and bathrooms feature updated flooring for easy maintenance and durability. The inviting corner fireplace serves as a focal point in the living space, complementing the home's historic design and cottage appeal. Alley access behind the property provides convenient off-street parking, an uncommon feature this close to the beach and downtown Gulfport attractions. Whether you are looking for a primary residence, weekend retreat, or investment property near the Mississippi Gulf Coast, this home delivers exceptional walkability, historic charm, and proximity to some of Gulfport's most popular destinations. Spend your mornings walking to the beach, afternoons exploring local shops and restaurants, and evenings enjoying the harbor and downtown coastal lifestyle. Opportunities to own a character-filled cottage in this location are increasingly rare.
