The history of the house; The house used to be part of the NMH School, a local private school, and is close to the beautiful old Northfield campus of NMH (see old post card below). It was called "Connecticut Cottage" so we call it "The Cottage" but it is certainly not a small home! Northfield is served by Pioneer High School a well know and excellent public school. This really is a great area for walking/jogging. The Ridge, a wooded reserve with thousands of acres, is very close by and is full of trails for hiking, biking, and cross country skiing. The Northfield golf course and community pool are just a mile up the road.
Utilities are separate and run about $50-$60 per month for electricity and $800-$1200/yr on propane heat. The apartment is cable ready.
The house is convenient to many areas. It is 10 minutes from Rt. 91 in Bernardston and about 25-30 minutes to both Keene NH and Brattleboro VT.
