About this home

RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN A PIECE OF HISTORY: 1829 The Foster House. This historic and beloved home is well known to the town's people with its iconic location perched at the top of Academy Hill and overlooking the town's common where events such as the Farmer's Market are enjoyed by many. Every room inside this home tells a story of its occupants over the years. Long time use as a summer house, this property has no heat and is in need of a complete restoration. It will not qualify for most financing programs. The ideal buyer is someone who wants to become the newest caretaker of a historic home and bring it back to its former glory. Private, accompanied showings only.
