About this home
Rare piece of history, Dr. John Hopkins House, Old world grandeur with small town charm!
Step into timeless elegance with this beautifully maintained and thoughtfully restored Queen Anne Revival Style Victorian, built in 1901 and ideally located in the heart of Downtown Milton. Rich in character yet seamlessly updated for modern living, this exceptional home offers four spacious bedrooms, including a large finished attic and three-and-a-half baths, providing both comfort and flexibility for everyday living and entertaining.
At the heart of the home is a true chef’s kitchen, anchored by a rare and iconic AGA cast-iron range—a coveted British-designed stove renowned for radiant heat cooking that locks in moisture and flavor. Prized by serious home chefs and seldom found in the United States, this premium range elevates the kitchen into a culinary showpiece. Paired with an inviting eat-in area, the space is as functional as it is inspiring, perfect for gatherings both casual and elegant.
Throughout the home, original charm shines with original hardwood flooring, original decorative fireplaces, and light-filled rooms that reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era. A full basement with impressive ceiling height (approximately 8–9 feet) offers an exceptional amount of storage or future potential—an uncommon and highly desirable feature in a home of this age. A new water heater (2025) adds peace of mind.
Outside, the property truly enchants. Set on a corner lot, the home is surrounded by lush, meticulously maintained gardens with automatic irrigation and inviting outdoor spaces, including a wrap-around porch and patio—ideal for morning coffee, evening conversations, or simply enjoying the beauty of the seasons. Parking is conveniently available via the side driveway along Federal Street, offering off-street parking in a prime downtown setting.
Just steps from local restaurants, shops, and community events, this remarkable Victorian blends historic charm, modern functionality, and an unbeatable location. A rare opportunity to own a lovingly restored piece of Milton’s history—where elegance, magnificent craftsmanship, and lifestyle come together beautifully....
