Gnome Sweet Home: Hopewell Hideout!

You’ll feel right at gnome in this freshly renovated two-story retreat! With a modern kitchen, flexible bedroom layout, and a cozy screened-in porch perfect for movie nights or sipping cold drinks, this home is ready to welcome you and your gnomies. Enjoy a fully fenced in backyard, spacious master suite, and easy access to Hopewell’s riverwalk, historic sites, and local coffee spots. It’s gnome-sweet-gnome at its finest!

Welcome to your gnome-away-from-gnome: this beautifully renovated two-story retreat, where classic character meets modern comfort. From the welcoming front porch to the fully fenced in front yard and backyard, every corner is designed to make guests feel cozy and cared for.

Inside, the open living area flows into a bright kitchen featuring granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and stylish subway tile backsplash—perfect for whipping up a meal to enjoy with your favorite gnomies.

Two downstairs bedrooms offer flexible sleeping arrangements: one tucked quietly off the living room, and the other near the full bath and kitchen for easy access.

The kitchen is a standout, with white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a timeless subway tile backsplash. Floating shelves add a designer touch, while the open layout makes entertaining effortless.

Adjacent to the kitchen, a dedicated laundry nook provides washer/dryer access and shelving, all tucked near the back door for easy trips to the yard or deck.

Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with its own private ensuite bathroom. Additional upper-level rooms feature charming, sloped ceilings, built-in benches, and soft carpeting.

The backyard includes a mature tree and is fully fenced in, offering both privacy and practicality. The newly renovated screened-in porch is a hidden treasure. With a mounted TV equipped with a Roku, afternoon shade, and plenty of room to relax, it’s perfect for movie marathons, cold drinks, or reminiscing with your favorite garden dwellers. The fully fenced yard offers privacy and a play space.
