Experience the incomparable craftsmanship of one of our most prestigious local builders replete with custom features and J Hoffman signature blend of period details and contemporary function and flair. This fully-renovated former mill house retains the warmth and character of a bygone era with original heart pine floors and beadboard ceilings, while affording modern luxuries like Marvin Essentials windows and custom tile and dual shower heads in the primary bath. Walnut countertops accentuate the chef’s kitchen with custom cabinetry, floating shelves and brushed gold fixtures. Board & batten siding and an expansive front porch innovatively marry the modern farmhouse with the metal roof mill house aesthetic. Just minutes from hip West Hillsborough standouts Hillsborough BBQ, Village Diner, Paws at the Corner, Whit’s Frozen Custard and Eno River Brewing as well as historic downtown and the River Walk that links them both. Make your own history in Hillsborough!
