Peterson and Mustard's Hermitage Farm is a historic home located near Smyrna, Kent County, Delaware. It built about 1863, and is a two-story, "L"-shaped frame dwelling in the Italianate "peach house" style. It consists of a three bay, flat roofed main block with a rear service wing. The front facade features a Greek Revival-style entryway. Also on the property are a contributing granary-loading shed group and stable; both of pegged braced-frame construction, and probably dating from the 19th century.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
