208 Washington Ave, Ocean Springs, MS 39564

HIGH & DRY Historic Washington Ave Downtown Gem!! Located in the heart of historic downtown Ocean Springs, this early 1900s Craftsman bungalow sits on the highest point of Washington Avenue - a truly high and dry location just blocks from the beach, marina, and the charming downtown shops, restaurants, and galleries. Built in 1904, the home is part of the Old Ocean Springs Historic District, a nationally recognized area celebrated for its rich architectural heritage and coastal character. With its wide eaves, tapered columns, and timeless bungalow style, 208 Washington Avenue showcases the craftsmanship of a bygone era. Surrounded by gorgeous oak trees and mature Southern landscaping, the property offers shade, privacy, and a sense of history that's hard to replicate. The spacious screened front porch is the perfect place to relax, enjoy the coastal breeze, and take in views of the beautiful historic homes lining Washington Avenue. Inside, the home features 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and just over 2,100 square feet of space ready for a thoughtful restoration. While it could use some some TLC, buyers may benefit from grants and tax incentives available for historic preservation efforts, helping to offset costs while honoring the home's architectural integrity. This is more than a renovation - it's a chance to restore a piece of Ocean Springs history while creating a home that's uniquely yours.
