About This Home

As of October 2022

One of Hyde Park's oldest existing homes, this charming cottage probably served as the orchard keeper's home over 150 years ago when this area of Hyde Park was newly settled and the land was used as an orchard/farm. The floor plan today is well-suited for someone who wants single-floor living and a central HP location. A rare, two-car attached garage adds to the convenience. Additional second floor space. Doors down from Carl's Deli and less than half a mile to Hyde Park Square.
