5677 HWY 53 Highway Beyond a private gated entrance, a paved winding driveway stretches across rolling pastures to this 27.2± acre estate, offering a serene retreat that blends privacy, space, and country living with refined comfort. The custom-built main residence showcases exceptional craftsmanship and character, including Rockwood plantation shutters throughout. The great room is the architectural centerpiece, featuring a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace with a mantel inspired by the Biltmore Estate, cathedral pine tongue-and-groove ceilings, and an elegant open staircase with decorative wrought-iron railing leading to a loft overlook. At the heart of the home, a gourmet chef’s kitchen boasts custom solid-wood cabinetry, granite countertops, high-end appliances, and a large entertainer’s island. It flows seamlessly into a sunlit breakfast area and formal dining room, highlighted by a chandelier and a hand-painted mural by Barbara Paroni. The home offers four bedrooms and three full baths. The primary suite includes direct access to an expansive office/theatre living room with surround sound, ideal as a media room, gym, or home office. Outdoor living features a large screened porch, spacious deck, and in-ground saltwater pool overlooking two ponds, fruit trees, gardens, and fully fenced acreage with three gated entrances. A Victorian-style playhouse with a loft near the pond adds a whimsical touch. Adding versatility, the estate includes a separate five-bedroom residence with one full bath and two half baths. Zoned commercial, it offers options for extended family, guests, business use, or rental income. Conveniently located near Gulfport with easy I-59 access, the property combines country tranquility with city convenience. With stunning Mississippi sunsets, this estate offers a rare opportunity where lifestyle, beauty, and endless possibilities converge.
