History enthusiasts, take note! Nestled in the heart of the Meeting House Historic District in charming old Rockingham Village lies an incredible opportunity to own one of the area’s oldest homes. Known as “The Betsy House” and listed in some records as the “John Cooper House” this historic Cape-style home dates back to 1760 or circa 1805, depending on town archives. This 1,130 square-foot gem is brimming with antique charm. It features a covered entry porch, a cozy eat-in kitchen, a bath, a living room complete with a woodstove, and a den. The second floor contains two bedrooms, each with a staircase. A room in between is used as an office, study or dressing room. The level yard with fruit trees adds to the appeal, chairs set beside a neighboring field is the perfect place for relaxing and watching wildlife. A quaint barn houses a one-car garage, workshop/potting area and woodshed. Set in a picturesque country setting, this property offers a fantastic and affordable opportunity for those eager to restore a vintage home. Located close to the Vermont Country Store, it also provides convenient access to Bellows Falls Opera House, Bellows Falls Country Club, Historic Parker Hill, Okemo Ski Resort, Interstate 91, and all the beauty and recreation Southern and Central Vermont have to offer. If you’ve dreamed of owning a piece of New England history, this is your chance to make that dream a reality!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
