This is an old one! Built in the 18th century! There are fruit trees on the property. The Historic Porter Family Colonial was built in 1797. It is located on 9.2 acres in Marlborough, New Hampshire. It would definitely take some undoing of past renovations to find the 18th century in this house. Would be fun to explore the property though! Three bedrooms, three bathrooms and 2,262 square feet. $271,000
