Property Description

Welcome to 751 Hopkins Bridge Rd! A stately 3 -story, 7 bedroom, 3 full bath home on almost 1 acre overlooking the White Clay Creek Preserve! With 176 years of history, this special property, named the Hopyard Plantation due to its cultivation of hops, dates back to the mid-1700's when the main house was built c. 1843 by Samuel Tyson as is inscribed in the cellar. A circular driveway leads to a beautiful front entrance with double doors framed by stately columns. The 1st floor houses a Grande foyer with a formal living room and dining room on either side, both with wood burning fireplaces and carefully selected antique mantels. The current owners expanded the first floor by adding a large eat-in kitchen addition. The kitchen offers all the updates today's buyers are looking for featuring a large island with bar stool seating, gas cooking, wall ovens & granite countertops. French doors lead out to the newly built rear deck and in-ground pool. Glass doors and oversized windows on 2 sides of the kitchen provide a Million Dollar view of the rolling hills of the White Clay Creek Preserve! Off of the kitchen is a cozy library with wood stove and rear stairs to the 2nd floor. A newly renovated full bath and convenient laundry room with built-in cabinetry finish off the 1st floor. The 2nd floor houses 4 bedrooms, 3 with wood burning fireplaces, and 2 full renovated baths. The 3rd floor provides 3 additional bedrooms and a storage room or office. Hardwood floors thru-out, extensive moldings, soaring 10 ft. ceilings, deep window sills and 6 fireplaces are just a few of the details that portray the exceptional history of this home. Additional notable updates include: Roof (2019), septic system (2013), furnace (2011). A stunning setting and a special place to call home!
