Would you want to own a beautiful four-bedroom house that’s nearly 100 years old?
Well, there’s one on the market in Brattleboro.
The “Cheap Old Houses” Instagram page, which led to the HGTV show “Who’s Afraid of a Cheap Old House,” recently showcased a gorgeous early-to-mid-century house with the caption, “Save this house!”
“Just sharing because it’s so fun!!!” the post said. “By “Save This House” I just mean: DON’T TOUCH IT”
No matter how much the poster wants it, this house could be yours as it is still on the market and available to look at on Zillow.
The property’s listing says that the house is located on a private side street near downtown Brattleboro. Its address is 10 Strawberry Hill, Brattleboro, VT 05301.

Built in 1940, this property was listed on Zillow by Erica Reynolds of Southern Vermont Realty Group. According to the listing, the house has four bedrooms, five bathrooms and measures 4,019 square foot. It is priced at $579,000.
“This extraordinary home was built in 1940 by a couple who sailed to England on the Queen Mary for their honeymoon,” the listing said. “Inspired by the elegance and modernity of the ship, they sought to infuse their home with the same glamour, resulting in a striking blend of nautical design and Modernist architecture.”
The listing said that the property comes with a dishwasher, a dryer, a washer as well as a garage space for parking the car.
“The expansive kitchen includes a breakfast bar, cozy dining nook, and both a butler’s pantry and cook’s pantry leading to the formal dining room with outdoor views,” the listing said.
The listing also touted it’s proximity to cities, just in case someone was thinking about using it as a part-time residence.
“Just a short drive from top ski resorts and outdoor recreation, it’s also conveniently located within hours of both New York City and Boston, making it perfect for a weekend escape or full-time residence,” the listing said.
