Located in the heart of Hattiesburg's coveted Kamper & Whinery Historic District, this beautifully preserved home blends timeless architectural character with thoughtful modern updates. From the moment you arrive, the wide, inviting front porch sets the tone — a true Southern welcome and the perfect place to enjoy morning coffee or evening conversations beneath mature trees. Inside, you'll find light-filled spaces highlighted by tall ceilings, classic moldings, and original details that speak to the home's history. The living area features a stunning fireplace with a rich wood mantel, creating a warm and elegant focal point, while large windows and French doors bring in abundant natural light and offer seamless access to the porch. The kitchen has been tastefully updated to complement the home's character, featuring farmhouse sink, crisp countertops, subway tile backsplash, and dark cabinetry that provide both contrast and sophistication.
