A Place Called Home; Betteridges Carefully Renovate Barre Colonial

Byline: Susan Spencer Arlene and Russell Betteridge greet first-time visitors to their Revolutionary War-era home in Barre with an invitation to make three wishes. It's easy to imagine one wish would be to never have to leave this welcoming place. The Betteridge home, a stately white clapboard Colonial with gunmetal gray shutters, overlooks 38 acres of rolling hills, stone walls and woods. It is a haven of peace, history, family and art.
