Quintessential New England small-town living defines The Betsy Searle Place, a distinguished Federal style residence blending historic integrity with thoughtful modern updates in the heart of Francestown. Located within walking distance to the town market, library, Town Hall, Meeting House, and tennis courts, this home offers true village living. Enjoy a vibrant community calendar featuring a weekly Farmers' Market, 4th of July Celebration, Labor Day Parade, summer concerts and more. Just minutes to Crotched Mountain skiing, golf, hiking, and local destinations including the Hancock Inn and Blue Bear Inn. A pond and waterfall down the street transform into a skating pond in winter, adding to the charm of all four seasons. Rich in architectural character, this timeless home showcases original Tamarack pine flooring, classic window shutters in the living and dining rooms, wood burning fireplaces, and a charming clapboard and brick exterior complemented by a traditional red barn. Mature sugar maples dot the property, ready to be tapped, enhancing both beauty and seasonal charm.

A multi-level stone patio connects the home and barn, creating a private outdoor setting ideal for entertaining or relaxing. The barn offers exceptional flexibility for a studio, home office, or guest space, with access to a second floor loft. Set on a landscaped 0.40 acre lot, the sale also includes a separate, non-contiguous 3.00 acre parcel, an increasingly rare opportunity.
