The main level features an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area with newer appliances and a full bathroom—an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. A spacious primary suite includes a private bath with a whirlpool tub and a walk-in closet, while a mudroom with laundry adds everyday convenience. An antique cook stove near the kitchen adds charm and character, while a loft upstairs provides additional flexible living space. The full basement, complete with a wood stove, offers excellent storage or potential for future finishing. Outside, enjoy a deck overlooking the property, a handy shed, and frontage on the Branch River, all set back from the main road for added privacy. The attached two-car garage completes this comfortable home. Swanzey offers a blend of small-town charm and modern amenities, including shops, restaurants, parks, and outdoor recreation. The nearby Dillant-Hopkins Airport makes regional and private travel convenient. Watch planes take off and land from the airport restaurant. Just minutes to downtown Keene, and with quick connections to Vermont and Massachusetts, this location is ideal for commuters or anyone who enjoys easy access to all that New England has to offer. Stop by the OPEN HOUSE on Sunday, 9/14/25, from 11-1.
