The Yellow House: The Highlight of Hillsborough’s Historic District!

One of the oldest homes in town–and a central player in its long history–141 East King Street embodies the enduring stature and unique charm of Hillsborough’s Historic District. The closest residence to the center of town, “Walkable Hillsborough” cannot get easier than a walk from here to anywhere on Churton Street. Yet despite its convenient location, life at the Yellow House feels quiet and removed from the bustle of town life below; perched high above the road, the sprawling 1.3 acre lot provides a deep, park-like oasis.

The current owner lovingly restored the home and its systems, providing all-new electrical, plumbing & hvac in 2022, and converted an extra bedroom upstairs into an expanded dressing & sitting area for the primary bedroom. Two bedrooms and two full baths remain upstairs, and the downstairs East Parlor, with a full ensuite bathroom, serves as an office, sitting room or third bedroom for visiting guests.

Unmatched in lot size and historical significance, restored and renewed for the 21st century.
