Old Hobson Farms oasis. Hillside contemporary home built on a spectacular 1.23 acre lot is adjacent to NCC open space. The canopied flagstone entry takes in the idealic setting. Windows and sliding doors bring the outside in. The decks and balconies are perfect for entertaining or just simply relaxing with a book or your best friend. There are two bedrooms on the main level and two on the lower level. The formal living room and more casual family room both have fireplaces and great light. Hardwood floors gleam in most of the home, some covered up since being laid. There is a small shop located off the garage for that project oriented individual. The solid construction and high efficiency air handlers combine to give you a very modest cost for utilities. Very low maintenance landscaping provides year round interest and privacy. New septic system installed in Fall of 2015.
