Mid-Century Modern Retreat near Ocean Springs - Ocean Springs

Welcome to Palm & Pine, an inviting Carroll Ishee mid-century retreat nestled in the serene and scenic Gulf Hills neighborhood! Co-owned and curated by an Ocean Springs native, this home fuses artistic design with modern coastal comfort. Enjoy a spacious living area, a private fenced yard, screened porch, fire pit, and boat parking. Minutes to downtown Ocean Springs (5 min), boat launch (4 min), and Front Beach (8 min). Dog-friendly! Ideal for design lovers and peaceful coastal escapes.

Inside, the organic, open-concept living space is defined by Ishee’s signature touch, including vaulted ceilings, earth tones, and large windows framing natural light and outdoor views. The interior has been styled in warm, mid-century boho decor and textures that complement the home's unique features.

The large living and dining area connects to a fully equipped kitchen featuring additional peninsula seating. Adjacent to the kitchen, the pantry is stocked with grill tools, a hand-held vacuum, a child booster seat, and dog supplies. Off the third bedroom, the laundry room offers a full-size washer and dryer for guest use.

Three well-appointed bedrooms include: 1) Primary bedroom with full ensuite bathroom, King size bed, Smart TV, a desk, and walk-in closet storage; 2) Second bedroom with Queen size bed and closet storage; and 3) Third bedroom with a twin bed and trundle. The living room features a pull-out sofa for 2 small children or 1 adult. A second, full bathroom is located in the hallway. Please note our bathrooms are both adorably vintage and fully functional! Tub/shower instructions have been provided in each.

Step outside into a private backyard sanctuary designed for slow morning coffees and festive evening gatherings. Enjoy a fully fenced lawn for pups (a bin has been provided by the back door for used dog bags), a dining patio with propane grill, a cozy fire pit, yard games, and a screened-in porch for bug-free lounging. Note that due to our natural surroundings in the well-established, lush Gulf Hills neighborhood, it's possible to encounter the occasional stray critter. Though we treat the property regularly, keeping main/screen doors and windows closed helps ensure that insects stay outside in their environment.

Palm & Pine is ideal for guests seeking eclectic design, cozy group gatherings, or a peaceful coastal basecamp. Ocean Springs is home to the Peter Anderson Arts & Crafts Festival, Walter Anderson Museum of Art, and Mary C. O’Keefe Cultural Center, alongside Gulf Coast traditions like Cruisin’ the Coast and Mardi Gras. We hope you enjoy our home, our beautiful, artsy beach town, and everything the Coast has to offer!
