Imagine enjoying lazy mornings in the sunroom, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee mingling with the scent of blooming flowers just outside. Perfect for creating culinary delights, the kitchen is accented with stainless steel appliances, granite counter tops, a functional center island and ample storage. Harmonizing old-world elegance with contemporary convenience, 56 Hough Street offers a haven that embodies the best of Dover living. Vibrant restaurants, charming retail shops, and cultural attractions await just a short stroll away or retreat to the privacy of your cozy home.
