2231 6th Street NW unit: 16 16 Where can you enjoy the energy of Downtown Hickory and the serenity of the Lake? Welcome to Mallard Cove, a secluded gem tucked between Glenn Hilton Park and Lake Hickory. Opportunities in this quiet community are rare, and Unit #16 is truly one-of-a-kind: it is the largest residence in the complex and the only unit offering a 3-bedroom, 2-bath floor plan. From the moment you cross the threshold, the details delight. You're greeted by custom laser-cut leaf tiling in the foyer and a gallery-style staircase with integrated lighting. The heart of the home features a stunning antique wood mantle and a floor-to-ceiling accent of genuine pressed poplar bark-a tactile, natural conversation piece you won't find anywhere else. The layout is "genius" by design. A split floor plan ensures privacy, with two guest rooms separated from the primary suite. The primary bedroom feels like a private retreat, opening onto an enclosed sunroom that overlooks the park like a modern treehouse. The ensuite bath is perfectly organized, featuring a large vanity, walk-in closet, and a conveniently located laundry area. Key Highlights: Breathtaking Views: Direct sights of the lake, the pool, and the park's canoe launch. Chef's Touches: A walk-through kitchen with under-counter lighting, a pantry, and a dedicated dining space anchored by a chandelier. Unbeatable Location: Minutes from the new App State campus, Hwy 321, and downtown dining. Call today to take a tour and make it your own.
