Your next chapter awaits in the picturesque, historic village of Francestown! This well-maintained antique cape from 1813 is 100% move-in ready with countless updates completed in the past several years. The brand-new backyard bluestone patio complete with a built-in grill and fire pit is prepared to host gatherings of family and friends for years to come. Impressive stone work, terraced hardscaping, and a subterranean French drain truly bring this space to the next level. Inside the home, a marvelous sun-drenched eat-in kitchen boasts glistening soapstone countertops and stainless steel appliances. The central, spacious dining/living room with exposed ceiling beams serves as a hub for the recently renovated full bathroom, a south-facing bedroom, and the front hallway leading to an office/living room and the screened-in porch. Imagine spending winter days enjoying delicious meals or curled up on the couch next to a crackling wood stove. A cozy upstairs provides extra office or bedroom space, a half bathroom, comfy window seat, and laundry. Other recent upgrades to the home include spray foam insulation, a water pressure booster, and interior paint throughout. If you would feel the need to expand your living area, take advantage of the two-level attached barn and renovate the interior! Here you are just 40 minutes to Manchester and Concord, 45 minutes to Keene, and 1.5 hours from Boston. OPEN HOUSE Saturday 3/15, 1-4pm

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
