676 Western Avenue, Henniker, NH 03242

Opportunity awaits in this grand Federal Colonial located in the Village District of the quaint college town of Henniker. Seeking the right new owner with a love of history and an appreciation for well built homes. Built in the style of Asher Benjamin and known as the Wilcoxen House, many prominent citizens have called this home and a complete history of ownership resides with the local historical society. A blank slate awaits the person with vision to bring it back to life. Remarkably sturdy and straight it is a testament to the craftsmanship that went into this structure. The present owner has done many repairs and improvements over the past 15 years and would love to hand this to someone who will lovingly continue down that path. There is a 1 BR 1 bath with kitchen cottage in back previously used as a rental, also in need of repair. The town has this listed as a multi family and it is located in a part of the village that allows many uses. The HUGE barn is in great shape and would make a perfect artist studio, antique store, gallery, farmer market or more. Large field out back as well as garden areas. Shown by appointment only.
4 Bed · 2 Bath · 3,358 Sq Ft · 1.3 Ac.
