Property Description
Character, thoughtful renovation, and an exceptional setting come together in this 3-bedroom, 3-bath Sheely Hills home just minutes from Mississippi State University. With 2,233 square feet of living space--including 1,881 square feet on the main level--the home offers the warmth of a charming, established neighborhood along with a layout beautifully updated for modern living. Beautiful hardwood floors are a defining feature of the main level. During the renovation, hardwood was added to the kitchen to create a natural, continuous flow into the adjoining living spaces, while the original oak floors throughout the main level were professionally refinished. The living room's bay window brings in abundant natural light and offers a lovely view toward the neighborhood pond, adding to the home's connection with its surroundings. The renovated kitchen and den form the heart of the home. Opening the former third bedroom to the kitchen created a spacious gathering area, while reconfigured cabinetry and pantry space made the kitchen more functional for everyday living. Updated appliances and a sliding glass door complete the space, creating an easy connection between the house and yard. Thoughtful improvements extend beyond the visible renovations, including a new roof in 2023 and an updated electrical panel. The finished lower level adds a third bedroom and bath along with flexible space for guests, a home office, exercise area, or second living space, with dedicated heating and cooling from a mini-split HVAC system. The setting is especially unusual for a home this close to Mississippi State University. The lot borders university-owned forested land, providing a peaceful, wooded backdrop and the everyday benefits of living alongside trees. An adjoining university-maintained meadow adds to the sense of open space. A beautiful snowball viburnum is a springtime highlight, while a dedicated fenced area near the house gives dogs their own space and leaves the larger yard open for recreation and entertaining. And this is a genuinely walkable location for Mississippi State University life. The Sanderson Center and university athletic venues are approximately one mile away and easily reached on foot or by bike. The home is about 1.5 miles from the central academic area, and walking and biking to campus are part of the rhythm of this established neighborhood. Sheely Hills itself adds to the appeal, with its charming residential setting, newly paved streets, neighborhood pond, and convenient location within the City of Starkville. A warm, distinctive home with room to live and work, a pond view, wooded surroundings, and the rare combination of a natural setting and a walkable connection to Mississippi State University.
