About Barre

Set in the rolling hills of central Massachusetts, Barre offers a classic New England feel centered around its expansive historic green. First settled in the early 1700s, the town grew outward from Barre Common, which remains framed by historic churches, stately colonial homes, and local gathering spots. Today, this Worcester County community offers a quiet, rural lifestyle with plenty of open space, scenic countryside, and genuine small-town charm.
