Treasures was originally founded in the summer of 1991 here in beautiful and “historic” Amherst, New Hampshire in the area that was known as Danforth’s Corner. The building that it is housed in, was built in (ca.) 1750 as a 3-room farmhouse with a dirt root cellar! It was owned by Capt. George Danforth. As time passed and the families back then grew larger, the house was expanded to add another room. That was in ca. 1800-30. Another room was added, then another and another including a working water closet and a real kitchen in the early 1900’s. Yahoo! All of this housing area was tied into the barn, remodeled and eventually became known as Treasures Antiques & Collectables. Then, later on in 1997, rebranded as TREASURES ANTIQUES, COLLECTABLES & MORE!
Oh, what a past! Imagine, sitting in the front room overlooking the path to “Amherst Station” well before this country was even born! (26 years before!) Feel the goose bumps? You’ll have to stop by and see for yourself.
Please also note – that over the years, we have been selected as the top store of its kind in the area by several newspapers and magazines, via readership vote. Thanks for all your generous votes over the many, many years. That means so much to all of us here at Treasures! Keep those votes coming our way….
