Tucked away on a quiet dead-end street in the heart of Belhaven, this 1932 Colonial is the kind of home Jackson buyers dream about: tall ceilings, great windows, gorgeous hardwood floors and original character, a fully reimagined heart-of-the-home downstairs, a sparkling pool framed by porches and a private courtyard, and, almost unheard of in this neighborhood, three-quarters of an acre to spread out on. Add in a private one-bedroom apartment for rental income, multi-generational living, or a future downstairs primary suite, and you have a property that flexes to however life is going next. Belhaven is the neighborhood people move to Jackson for...walkable, tree-canopied streets just minutes from Baptist and UMMC hospitals, Belhaven University, downtown Jackson, and favorite restaurants and coffee shops. This lot backs directly to the Mississippi Museum of Art's walking and biking trails. Parks and playgrounds are close by, I-55 access is easy, and you still come home to a dead-end street with almost none of the drive-by traffic Belhaven is known for. The .76-acre lot sets this property apart from anything else in Belhaven. A classic front porch welcomes you in, while the back is built for entertaining: a large pool anchors the yard, framed by a screened porch above and a separate large deck off the second floor, both overlooking the water. A private courtyard off the kitchen offers its own quiet spot for morning coffee, connected by brick walkways winding through mature landscaping. There's also a detached multi-car carport, a detached 2-car garage with two additional storage spaces, and a full workshop. Step through the front door into an entrance foyer showcasing the home's original staircase. To the right, an oversized formal living room offers room for multiple seating arrangements, built-in bookcases, and the first of the home's three fireplaces. Across the foyer, a generous formal dining room flows into the fully renovated kitchen, complete with custom cabinetry, stone counters, large windows, plenty of counter space, and loops back to the living room through an arched opening hiding clever additional storage. The real heart of the house is at the back: a light-filled living room with walls of windows, slate look floors, and a second gas fireplace, opening off both the formal living room and the kitchen, and connecting directly, through an interior door, to the home's one-bedroom apartment. With its own front entry and welcoming porch, the attached apartment has a gorgeous original fireplace (the home's third), open living space, an adorable kitchen, a spacious bedroom, and an en-suite bath with a large shower. Rental income, an in-law suite, or a guest retreat — it lives completely independently while still connecting inside whenever you want it to feel like one house. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is oversized with multiple closets and a beautifully restored bath featuring original tile work and beadboard detailing alongside a large updated shower. Across the hall, two well-sized guest rooms share a hall bath also lovingly restored, with original tile and marble countertop. Double doors at the top of the stairs open onto a private screened porch overlooking the pool and backyard. Down a small hallway off the second guest room is the home's best-kept secret: a bonus room large enough for a seating area, office, and bedroom, with its own restored bathroom and a private door out to the deck overlooking the pool. This home has been continuously and thoughtfully maintained: new roof in 2024, kitchen completely renovated, both main bathrooms refurbished, driveway concreted, wooden fence replaced, and more. Belhaven buyers know homes like this that are full of original character, thoughtfully updated, offering this much land and flexibility, don't come along often. Come see why 1138 St. Ann is more than a house; it's a rare Belhaven lifestyle.
