Hobbitat opened its doors in January 2012 and
has since constructed 7 “Hobs” (our version of small houses). Each one is unique in design and materials
used.
Our
passion is for small (300 sq’) structures, thoughtfully designed, using today’s
technologies wrapped in sustainable and re-purposed materials.
All of our Hobs are built in our shop and
moved outside when they are ready to be set.
Mud, snow, rain and careless concern are not in our repertoire. Normally our Hobs can be set and
weather-tight in one day.With over 30 years of custom home
design/building, our team delivers one of a kind structures that only knowledge
and thoughtful execution can produce. We
are passionate with our efforts and it shows in every Hob we create.We are currently building 13 Hobs for Blue
Moon Rising on Deep Creek Lake. It’s a center for sustainable education. They are doing very cool things here in
western Maryland. We are just a part of
their outreach to sustainable living.

Each of our Hobs built for BMR has a full
bathroom, ¾ kitchen and can sleep up to 4 people. Porches are built once the Hobs are set in place.
Hob #5 & 6 will winter in our yard till
spring when they will be moved to their new home at Blue Moon Rising. Hob # 7
is just getting started inside our shop.
