I love this house!! I love how they included old pictures with the listing pictures. This is the first time the Benjamin Robinson cottage has been available in 50 years. Located on 4.3 acres in Jaffrey, New Hampshire. An opera singer once called this home and it was used as a movie set. I love how it is like stepping back in time. Everything looks original. And that library!!!! Love it!!! Four bedrooms, four bathrooms, and 2,876 square feet. $300,000 New Price: $275,000

Rooms are graciously sized with plenty of options for family or home office supported by Comcast. Original character remains in coffered LR ceiling, newell post & cottage windows.The library is lined with bookcases and has a full bath (poss. 1st fl master). It has direct access to the porch which has open, covered, and screened areas to enjoy your friends and family. The LR & DR flow nicely for entertaining.
