The James Monroe Avent House in Hickory Valley, Tennessee was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.
It is a two-and-a-half-story wood-frame Queen Anne-style house on a brick foundation. It was deemed significant as a Queen Anne house and for its association with James Monroe Avent (1860-1936), the "Fox of Hickory Valley," a dog trainer who developed the National Bird Dog Championship during the years he lived in this house.
At the time of NRHP listing in 2001, the house was operated as a bed and breakfast.
