About This Home

As of November 2024

Prepare to fall in love with this exquisite and unique home. A historic and architectural treasure that stands as one of the most recognizable properties in Keene. Known locally as the "church house", this gem was built in 1853 by a renowned mason, utilizing bricks salvaged from Keene's beautiful downtown churches. Its modified Victorian Gothic style exudes timeless charm and craftsmanship. A tour of this four bedroom, 2 bath residence is a delightful experience. The property features a distinctive, sun-filled Belfry—ideal for savoring your morning coffee. Meticulously maintained and tastefully updated, it combines the quality craftsmanship of the past with modern conveniences. Refinished wide pine flooring upstairs, extensive energy efficient upgrades with blown-in cellulose and spray foam insulating, energy star double hung windows. The home is surrounded by beautiful landscaping, a stone paver patio, and a walkway bordered by a period-appropriate wrought iron fence. Located within walking distance of Central Square's dining and shopping options, Cheshire Medical and elementary schools, this energy-efficient home is a must-see! Delayed showings until Tuesday, September 10th
