1006 Hickory Avenue

A Southern Classic with a Story to Tell! Some homes have square footage. Some have updates. And some have stories. Built in the 1940s and beautifully expanded over the years, this gracious Southern home in McComb's beloved Edgewood Park has been the backdrop for generations of family life. With more than 3,200 square feet, 4 bedrooms and 4 baths, there's room here to settle in, spread out and make a little history of your own. The long, sweeping front porch sets the tone before you ever step inside. Beyond the front door, you'll find a stunning entry, portions of the original narrow-plank heart pine flooring, and a wonderful formal dining room with built-in cabinetry ready to display the good china—yes, even Grandma's. The home has evolved right along with the families who have loved it, with additions over the years and updates to the kitchen that bring modern convenience to its classic character. Newer AC units add another welcome update. Situated on three spacious corner lots, the property offers plenty of breathing room in the pretty, established surroundings of Edgewood Park. A fenced backyard provides a private place for children, pets, gardening or simply enjoying the outdoors. And then there's one little detail you won't find in a feature sheet: the growth wall. Two families have raised their children within these walls, and the handwritten marks recording growing kids over the years were intentionally left unpainted—a sweet reminder of just how much life has been lived here. Minutes from McComb shopping, dining and medical facilities and approximately two hours from New Orleans, 1006 Hickory offers the space of a large family home, the character of an earlier era and a setting that simply feels good. Come sit on that big front porch awhile. This Southern classic is ready for its next chapter. *Another unique feature to this home is the hidden full bath in the closet of the hall guest bedroom! It is a bit unfinished but fully functional and is quite an amazing surprise!
