A wood-beamed pavilion, a fire pit glowing under string lights, and an outdoor kitchen built where every evening feels like a celebration -- welcome to 226 Tidewater Road in Canebrake. Sitting on 1.25 private, heavily shaded acres near the front entrance of the community, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath custom home delivers timeless character with major updates already done for you, including a new roof, a whole-house generator, and the stunning new outdoor living pavilion. Step through the front door and you're immediately greeted by soaring ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and the kind of natural light that makes everything feel bigger and brighter. The walls of glass across the back of the home bring the outside in, creating an open, airy atmosphere that's rare to find in a home of this age and character. The great room anchors the main living area with a fireplace with decorative spheres, arched built-ins, and arched passageways that lead gracefully to the formal dining room and foyer. Crown molding and detailed millwork throughout remind you at every turn this home was built to last. The kitchen is both beautiful and highly functional. New granite countertops and a classic tile backsplash pair with white cabinetry and warm gold hardware. The center island features a new 5-burner gas cooktop, there's a KitchenAid double wall oven, built-in microwave, and a farmhouse sink overlooking the backyard. Glass-front upper cabinets with interior lighting, a built-in desk nook, and a walk-in pantry with coffee bar round out a kitchen that's as organized as it is beautiful. The primary suite on the main level is designed for true rest and privacy. The spa-inspired bath features a jetted soaking tub, a glass-enclosed tile shower with dual shower heads and mosaic accent tile, plantation shutters, and a long vanity corridor connecting to the dressing room and generous walk-in closet. A private patio door gives you direct access to the backyard. One of the home's most unique features is the brick-floored room off the main living area -- currently used as a home gym and office -- with French doors opening to both the backyard and the great room. This versatile space works equally well as a studio, playroom, or second den. Canebrake is one of Hattiesburg's most sought-after communities, offering a country club, golf course, multiple swimming pools, an extensive tennis and pickleball complex, a lakefront clubhouse, sandy beach area with docks, walking trails, playground, and underground utilities.
