Imagine starting your morning with coffee overlooking the backyard, spending warm Mississippi afternoons in your heated pool, and ending the evening curled up beside one of three fireplaces. At 111 Tallulah Ridge, this isn't simply a house with plenty of space--it's a home designed for gathering, entertaining, and enjoying the moments in between. Tucked inside the desirable Backwater community, this impressive 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers more than 4,500 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. At the heart of the home is an amazing kitchen with granite countertops, generous workspace, and a large island that invites everyone to gather around. From casual mornings to holiday dinners, the kitchen flows naturally into comfortable living spaces, including a cozy den where the home's third fireplace creates the perfect place to settle in and unwind. Throughout the home, you'll find spaces that can adapt to the way you live. A dedicated office can easily serve as a home gym, while the separate formal dining room is ready for celebrations and special occasions. Upstairs, a spacious flex space offers even more possibilities and could serve as a fifth bedroom, game room, media room, or guest retreat. The main-level primary suite provides a retreat of its own, complete with a private fireplace, while another fireplace anchors the main living room--three fireplaces in all, giving this home warmth and character from room to room. Then step outside to a backyard made for Mississippi living. The fenced outdoor space centers around an in-ground pool with a waterfall and recently installed new pool heater, extending the season for enjoying the water. New pool equipment also makes caring for your backyard retreat easier, leaving more time to simply enjoy it. A roof replaced approximately three years ago adds another significant update. And life in Backwater extends beyond your own backyard. The neighborhood offers sought-after amenities including a community pool and fishing lake, combining the feel of a private retreat with an established community. Some homes give you square footage. 111 Tallulah Ridge gives you spaces to gather, celebrate, work, play, retreat, and make memories. Come see where your next chapter could begin.
