About this home
Welcome home to 3520 Hawthorn Drive in Jackson's historic Fondren District that offers a rare opportunity to own a timeless Southern masterpiece designed by the legendary A. Hayes Town—one of only eight known homes in Jackson attributed to the renowned architect. Originally built in 1939, renovated in 2000, and thoughtfully updated in 2024, the 6,364 square ft main residence blends architectural prestige, classic charm, and modern convenience in a way few homes can.
The main home boasts 5 bedrooms, 5 full and 2 half bathrooms. The entry level welcomes you with a stunning foyer, formal dining room, formal living room, office/library, 2 half baths, wet bar, sunroom, luxurious primary suite, kitchen, keeping room (that was the original kitchen), laundry room, and screened patio. The second floor accommodates 4 more bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. The third floor features two multi- use rooms with an additional full bathroom. These wood paneled rooms can ideally be used as a game room and/or studio perhaps...options abound. The fully finished basement (693 ft) has two rooms, one featuring a kitchenette and a full bath. Throughout the entire home plentiful cabinetry and built-in's provide for never-ending storage. The home accommodates both intimate living and large-scale entertaining with ease. A 1,062 square foot private carriage house is located above the three-bay garage (fits up to six vehicles), includes a full kitchen, full bathroom, and living/sleeping quarters—perfect for long-term guests or multigenerational living.
Sophistication greets you at the curb with crisp white painted brick, black shutters, massive architectural columns, and a copper-roofed front porch. The newly installed slate and copper roofing (2024), complete with copper chimney caps and gutters, exudes enduring quality. The circular drive connects to the gated section through a brick privacy wall, which, along with a state-of-the-art ADT security and camera system, provides peace of mind and seclusion.
Inside, custom details abound—from the hand-stained diamond-pattern wood flooring in the grand foyer to the striking salvaged Indianola brick floors and wood-beamed ceiling in the main living area. Five fireplaces, including one with a breathtaking Italian-imported marble surround valued at ~$150,000, add warmth and elegance throughout the home. Original blueprints of the home are framed above the mantle and will remain with the home. The chef's kitchen features Viking appliances, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, soapstone countertops, an oversized island, custom cabinetry, a butler's pantry, dumb waiter, and a whole house water filtration system. A keeping room with herringbone hardwood floors provides casual gathering space off the kitchen. A cozy screened porch with a wall-mounted television leads to an expansive terrace with a water feature—ideal for entertaining or unwinding in the outdoors.
Additional highlights include a transferable warranty on recent foundation work and a whole-house water filtration system. Modern luxuries aside, the property's historic charm endures with the original 1939 stove (to remain, condition unknown) and the rumored Civil War-era significance of the backyard grounds. Wall-mounted televisions in the main living area and screened porch will also remain.
Hawthorn Drive was recently resurfaced as part of Jackson's 2025 Street Improvement Project. Just minutes from interstate access, Mississippi's top restaurants, shops, cultural venues, parks, and world-class medical centers, 3520 Hawthorn Drive represents a one-of-a-kind opportunity in the heart of Jackson.
