Step into the charm of historic Ocean Springs with this rare opportunity to own two beautifully restored historic cottages on one lot - right in the heart of downtown. Make your dreams come true owning these charming updated historic cottages. Perfectly located just one mile from the beach, Ocean Springs Harbor and Yacht Club and within the walkable, golf cart district, this property offers a blend of timeless Southern character with modern comfort. This property features two fully renovated homes on one lot, perfect for multigenerational living, guests, or potentially generate income. Currently 1307 Bowen Ave is a vacation rental. The main home exudes Southern charm with welcoming front door, porch and real working shutters. Inside greets you with the warmth of 200-year-old restored old heart of pine flooring throughout and 9' ceilings elegantly crowned with cove molding. Updates include all new plumbing and electrical systems, new metal roof, and new energy efficient HVAC, windows and doors. Inside, enjoy new sheetrock, insulation, ceiling fans and lighting throughout. The kitchen and bath feature custom cabinetry, granite countertops and new stainless appliances. The bathroom has a luxurious jetted soaking tub with rain shower and unlimited hot water with the new tankless gas water heater. You'll find extraordinarily large closets with new built-in drawers and shelving. Every detail has been thoughtfully restored, right down to the new hardware and doorknobs. The exterior of the home has new hardy plank for durability and adds to the curb appeal. A long concrete driveway was added to allow for rear parking and security with automatic outdoor lighting. The second cottage is equally historic, full of character, showcasing its original siding, doors and hardware, as well as an authentic screened back porch. This one bedroom, one bath home is approximately 800sf, has been equally renovated to match the quality and charm of the main home, and is currently used as a successful vacation rental. Located in the vibrant downtown core of Ocean Springs, you're literally steps away from popular restaurants, shops, art galleries, parks, live music, nightlife, Walter Anderson Museum, and iconic events like Cruisin' the Coast and the Peter Anderson Festival. Whether you're looking for a charming personal residence with room for quests or your own vacation home to enjoy this destination coastal community, this property is truly one of a kind.
