There’s something about an old home? Am I right? Okay, maybe it’s just me!

Being born and raised in New England, just outside of Boston to be more specific, older homes have always had a certain appeal. I’ve actually lived in two. My current home, a farmhouse built by a former Portsmouth Shipyard employee back in the early 1900s.

It’s the rich history these old homes hold that make them unique which is why this recent post from Realtor.com caught my eye. If you, like me, love the charm of an old colonial home you’ll want to check out Realtor.com’s compilation of the oldest homes to recently hit the market. Several are right here in New England.
