Spacious Seaside 5 bedroom 3.5 bath condo Across From Beach & Heart of Downtown

The Merrywood – A Seaside Retreat on Iconic Scenic Drive

Imagine starting your morning with coffee on a grand Southern porch as the gentle Gulf breeze drifts through the oaks. At The Merrywood, timeless charm meets coastal luxury in the most central and walkable location in downtown Pass Christian—a private retreat featuring on-site high-end boutiques and elegant gathering spaces. Just across from the beach and steps from restaurants, coffee shops, and ice cream parlors, it offers the perfect blend of history, beauty, and convenience.

Whether you’re gathering family from near and far, sneaking away for a romantic coastal escape, or planning a creative retreat, this 3,000 sq ft haven combines historic character, modern comfort, and an unmatched location. No other property offers this level of walkability, space, and style in the heart of downtown.

Your accommodations encompass the entire upstairs level of the property, including all interior spaces and the front and back porches shown in the listing photos—each reserved exclusively for your private use. The curated boutiques are located separately on the ground level.


The Space

Step into a true retreat that feels like a private resort. The Merrywood’s open layout flows naturally from the elegant living and dining areas to inviting outdoor spaces designed for connection and relaxation.

The porches are magazine-worthy and open directly off the main living area, creating seamless flow for entertaining. Up front, grand white columns frame plush seating for 4—perfect for sunrise coffee and people-watching along Scenic Drive. Out back, a private retreat awaits with designer furnishings and seating for 14, complemented by elegant outdoor fire tables for cozy twilight gatherings. Inside, the main living and dining areas comfortably seat 22 for shared meals, games, and late-night conversations, offering an easy transition between indoor and outdoor spaces.

Perfect for multi-family vacations, corporate retreats, or even a peaceful honeymoon escape, The Merrywood offers flexible space for every type of stay.
