Property Description

More than a century of craftsmanship and a connection to history make 501 Bay Street a memorable part of Hattiesburg's Historic District! Built in 1910 by the Jeff Cook family, this Colonial Revival home is a contributing property in the National Register district and was used as a filming location for Don't Look Back: The Story of Leroy 'Satchel' Paige. The home's wide wraparound front porch features Ionic columns, spindle railings, and a beadboard ceiling. Wood siding, deep roof overhangs, and oversized windows add to the distinctive exterior on this corner lot. In addition to the 3500+ sq ft main home, there is a gorgeously updated income-producing garage apartment with full bath and kitchenette that could be used as income property, mother-in-law suite, college student, etc Inside the main home you will find original hardwood flooring, substantial wood trim, and an open foyer with an impressive wooden staircase featuring turned balusters and paneled newel posts. The front door has oval glass and a transom above, with diamond-patterned upper window panes beside the staircase. A handcrafted wooden archway with intricate fretwork, slender columns, and paneled bases connects the foyer to the formal living room. Large windows, picture rail molding, and six fireplaces with original mantels and tilework carry the home's architectural detail from room to room. A separate second living room extends behind the formal living room. The kitchen features white cabinetry extending to the ceiling, tile flooring, pendant lighting, and a peninsula adjoining the spacious dining area. The dining area features wood flooring, wainscoting, and large windows with interior shutters. The floor plan includes one downstairs bedroom and three upstairs bedrooms, each with a fireplace, along with three full baths. The upstairs primary suite has a walk-in closet, a jetted tub, and a separate shower. An additional bath features a clawfoot tub, decorative wood vanity, beadboard wainscoting, and patterned tile flooring. Two staircases connect the floors, and the laundry room is conveniently located upstairs. The covered rear porch wraps around the back of the home with exposed ceiling framing and ceiling fans overlooking the fenced backyard. A newly installed pond adds a striking and unique feature with rock edging, aquatic plants, and surrounding palms and greenery. Stone pathways, an adjoining patio, and a detached outbuilding round out this historic Bay Street property! Schedule your private viewing today!
