Listing broker remarks

Welcome to 81 Hobart Street — the home you’ve driven by for years and admired for its incredible curb appeal! Centrally located, and set on a dreamy 0.8-acre lot, this beautiful antique farmhouse is sure to captivate. The first floor offers an ideal balance of open, connected spaces and distinct rooms. The recently renovated kitchen is truly magazine-worthy, with a sunny breakfast nook on one side and a beautiful formal dining room on the other. The charming family room features a wood-paneled ceiling, fireplace, and sliders leading to the newly built deck. A bright four-season sunroom provides the perfect spot for morning coffee, while a brick patio just outside offers another inviting place to relax or entertain. Also on the first floor are a full bathroom, mudroom, and formal living room, currently being used as a home office. Upstairs, you’ll find three bedrooms and a second full bathroom. Recent updates include new windows throughout the first floor, a new furnace, new central A/C upstairs, new kitchen, new deck, and exterior painting. The two-car garage offers a bonus loft space above, providing an exciting opportunity for future expansion (4-bedroom septic system). Outside, the grounds are every bit as special as the home, with a gently rolling lawn and plenty of charming spots to sit, garden, and enjoy the peaceful setting. A truly special antique farmhouse in a convenient location — a must see!— Compass
