FRANCONIA, NH — During travels throughout North America and around the world, Vespar Duffy and her husband have always taken the time to explore the local architecture and real estate market.
"With my interest in style and design, including architectural and interior design for homes, real estate has always been a significant interest of mine," says Duffy, who recently joined Badger Peabody & Smith Realty as a sales agent in their Franconia office. "Location plays a big part in real estate, but I've always felt that a home's design is also essential to a compelling property and a satisfied client, so I'm very excited to share my knowledge with our buyers and sellers."

Scores of people visit our states to view the foliage, and the states of New Hampshire, and Vermont even have their own foliage reports. I th... Littleton, New Hampshire, nestled in the foothills of the beautiful White Mountains range, is one of America's treasured historic communities. The town was settled on the banks of the Ammonoosuc River just prior to the American Revolution, a site undoubtedly chosen because of its breathtaking natural surroundings and bountiful resources. Littleton was incorporated in 1784 and named in honor of Colonel Moses Little, who fought in the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the Battle of Bunker Hill, and other key struggles of the Revolution.
