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.
