This Ishee home features three bedrooms, two baths. It is a well-crafted, post-and-beam, two-story home. Blending with its beautiful setting, the house has custom made doors and windows, tree branches for door handles and towel racks. The backyard has a small trail, allowing a view of a variety of long-standing trees, such as oaks, magnolias, cypresses, sweet bays, poplars, evergreen shrubs, ferns and gingers. The upstairs living room has panoramic views of nature with its large windows, high-vaulted ceilings, and a balcony. The primary bedroom includes an ensuite bathroom. A spiral staircase connects the upstairs to the downstairs, which features a spacious living area lined with windows and gives a view of the deck and foliage. Adjacent are two bedrooms and a bathroom. The location is ideal and it is easy to walk or bike to the Biloxi bridge, Front Beach, the harbor, downtown, Lover's Lane and many restaurants. Each detail of this house exemplifies Ishee's extraordinary vision and displays some of Ishee's most notable features. This home was chosen to be exhibited in the ''Visionary Builder: Carroll B. Ishee'' at the Mary C. O'Keefe Cultural Arts Center, sponsored by the Department of Marine Resources, Office of Restoration and Resiliency (March 2019-2021). The house was also featured in an architecture tour of Ocean Springs, sponsored by the Walter Anderson Museum of Art (1990).
