2405 21st Avenue, Gulfport, MS 39501

Description

Built circa 1834, before Gulfport was incorporated in 1898, this home's story began long before the city itself... and now it's ready for its next chapter. Cherished by generations, 2405 21st Avenue offers approximately 2,542 square feet across a main residence and an adjoining apartment with a separate entrance. Situated on three contiguous lots, the current layout includes a combined 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 1 half bathroom, and two kitchens. The main residence features two bedrooms, a full and half bath, living room, dining room, den, kitchen, and laundry room. The adjoining one-bedroom apartment includes a full bath, kitchen, living room, and breakfast nook, offering flexibility for additional living space or potential rental use, subject to zoning and applicable approvals. Recent improvements include a roof replacement, siding and exterior paint in 2023, HVAC replacement in 2025, attic insulation, and select replacement windows. An active termite bond provides an additional maintenance benefit, and the property is identified as Flood Zone X. The kitchens and bathrooms are ready for renovation, offering an opportunity to bring your own style to a property with nearly two centuries of history. With its enduring character, adaptable layout, and recent improvements, this Gulfport home invites you to preserve a piece of the past while making it your own.
