The House

Location meets historic charm.

This gorgeous 1900 cottage sits nestled directly in downtown West Point. Whether you're in town for business, a getaway, or heading over to catch a game, this central spot offers the best of the Golden Triangle — just 18 miles from Starkville, home of the Mississippi State Bulldogs, making 88 Court Street a peaceful alternative to crowded college-town hotels on gameday weekends.

The home boasts a picture-perfect white clapboard exterior, manicured greenery, and an inviting covered porch — perfect for unwinding after a day cheering on the Bulldogs at Davis Wade Stadium. Inside, 2,200 square feet blend updated amenities with rich Southern history: heart pine floors, gingerbread trim, marble countertops, new stainless appliances, and a freshly rebuilt deck out back.

It's an easy walk to the town square and the Black Prairie Blues Museum, and a quick, seamless drive down the highway straight into the heart of Bulldog country.

Close enough for an easy gameday drive into Starkville, far enough to fall asleep on a quiet street in a historic town. Maroon and white welcome, always.

Room by Room

A walk through the house

Living Room

The gathering room

A brick fireplace, high ceilings, a Roku TV, and a deep Heriz rug anchor the front living room — built-in bookcases on one side, tall shuttered windows on the other, and enough seating for the whole crew to land after a day out.

Center Hall

The hallway everyone stops in

Original heart pine floors run the length of the house, past a pair of wingback chairs and a portrait that's watched over this hall for generations. It's a small moment, but it's the one that tells you this is a real old house, not a reproduction of one.

Bedroom One

Primary bedroom

A king iron bed dressed in white linens sits between two antique chests, with a pine blanket trunk at the foot of the bed and layered rugs underfoot. Tall windows with blackout drapes, a ceiling fan, a Roku TV, and portraits that have hung in this room for years.

Bedroom Two

The twin room

A matched pair of antique four-poster twins, made up with navy quilts and lace bed skirts — ideal for kids, siblings, or a gameday roommate. High ceilings, two tall windows with blackout drapes, and a Roku TV.

Bedroom Three

The room with the carved headboard

An ornate antique walnut double bed anchors the third bedroom, dressed in a hand-pieced quilt, with a period side chair and matching nightstand. High ceilings, deep carpet, blackout drapes, and a Roku TV keep it quiet and easy to sleep in.

Bonus Space

The room under the beams

A skylit den beneath the exposed roof beams — sofa and Roku TV on one end, a working desk on the other. Good for a quiet retreat between kickoff and supper.

Kitchen & Dining

Cook, eat, linger

Marble countertops and a subway-tile backsplash meet a round pedestal table original to the house — pull up a spindle chair, spin the lazy susan, and stay a while. Fully equipped for cooking a real gameday spread.

Two Full Baths & a Powder Room

Marble throughout

Marble vanities and gold fixtures throughout — one ensuite bath with a glass shower, a second full bath with a tub, and a marble powder room for guests. 2.5 baths total.
