1930 Colebrook Home, 8 Years as a Rental, Walking Distance to Town — $149,900

Eight years as a rental means something. It means the place has been tested by people who had no particular reason to be gentle with it, and it kept going. That is worth something at $149,900.

The house was built in 1930 and runs 1,496 square feet across three bedrooms and one bath. That is a real amount of space for the money, especially in a small New Hampshire town where you can walk to shops, restaurants, and schools from the front door. That kind of location matters in a place with actual winters.

The layout is described as comfortable, which tells you it flows well enough without being particularly open or modern. The partially finished basement adds usable space below grade. The listing floats the idea of a rec room, home office, or guest overflow, and any of those tracks. A partially finished basement in a 1930 house is a bonus, not a given. There is also a small deck and a yard sized for someone who wants to be outside without committing to serious upkeep.

One bath for three bedrooms is the constraint here. It has always been one bath and probably will stay that way unless someone puts money into it. If that is a dealbreaker for how you live, it is worth knowing upfront.

What you are actually looking at is a 94-year-old house that has been in service as a rental for close to a decade, is still standing, and is priced under $150,000 in a walkable location. As a primary residence it is affordable and functional. As a rental it already has a track record. The listing does not mention recent updates, so it is fair to go in expecting that some things will need attention. A house this age with this history deserves a thorough inspection. But the floor is low and the location is real.
