Tucked on a quiet country road, this sweet single-level 2 bedroom, 1 bath ranch delivers ease, privacy, and quick access to the outdoor life Walpole is known for. A sunny living room, with a great bay window, welcomes you home, opening to a workable kitchen with room for everyday gathering. Two comfortable bedrooms and a full bath. The easy-care footprint means more time for what you love, gardening, trail runs, or a peaceful morning coffee on the deck. Outside, the expansive yard offers space for play, pets, or raised beds, plus a shed for gear/toys and a stone fire pit for starry nights and s'mores. Love the outdoors? Trailheads are close by, with skiing, hiking, biking, paddling, and year-round recreation in both NH and nearby VT. You’re minutes to Walpole Village, the common, and Burdick’s for world-class chocolate and a cozy meal. Commuting is simple with convenient access to Route 12/I-91/Keene/Brattleboro. Recent updates include new asphalt shingle roof on addition/entry way, water filtration system, basement vapor barrier system, a new bathroom, pressure tank, and new appliances, making this a move-in friendly retreat or first home. If you’ve been looking for a quiet, country setting with small-town charm and big-time convenience, this is the one.
Bright country cottage on sunny open lot awaits a new owner. Two bedrooms, one bath, hardwood floors. Many recent upgrades including metal roof, modern appliances, and a new water heater. Storage shed and chicken coop. A perfect opportunity to own in a great location.
