Hillsboro, nestled along the Tuckahoe River, conveniently located to all that is important to the Eastern Shore's sought-after lifestyle. Public landing with dock and kayak lauch is just a block away. The WILLIAM SMITH HOUSE, built in 1794, exemplifies the world of a successful Grain Merchant living in an important hub for grain and tobacco. The house has been altered slightly through the many decades, but the character of the original building dominates the architecture and "feel" of its 1794 era. Its charm and elegance remain. The rooms are commodious and inviting. The grand center ENTRANCE HALL is punctuated by the graceful stair, fine woodwork and doors.
