Everything in this house has been touched. Roof, plumbing, windows, siding, flooring, kitchen, bathroom — all of it new. That is a different thing than a fresh coat of paint and some new light fixtures. When a renovation goes that deep, what you are buying is a house where the expensive surprises have already been paid for by someone else. At 1,301 square feet across three bedrooms and one bath, this is a compact house, but a clean one.
The kitchen got granite countertops and new cabinetry, and the appliances come with it. The bathroom was fully redone alongside the kitchen. The exterior is HardiePlank siding, which holds up well in coastal Mississippi. All the windows are new. The roof is new. These are the things that quietly cost you money for years in an older house, and here they have been addressed.
Location puts you close to Buffett Beach and within reach of the restaurants and waterfront that make Pascagoula worth living in rather than just passing through. That proximity is not nothing for a house at this price.
The price itself is where things get complicated. At $143,000, you are sitting about 2% above the zip code median of roughly $140,000. The price per square foot comes in around $110, which is below the median for the area, so on that measure the house looks reasonable. But this is a buyer's market right now. Over 40% of listings in this zip have taken price cuts, homes are sitting around 54 days, and sellers are closing at about 95.5% of list. There is room to negotiate here, and the data says buyers have leverage to use. Paying a slight premium over median in that environment is worth pressing on.
The single bath is the most limiting thing about the floor plan long-term. One bathroom works fine for some households and creates friction for others. That is the honest version of it.
What the renovation does is remove the usual uncertainty. You know what you are getting. In a market where buyers can afford to be patient, a house this thoroughly redone at this size and price is worth a serious look.
