Welcome Acres is a historic house in Goshen, New Hampshire. It is located on the east side of New Hampshire Route 10, about 1/2 mile north of its junction with Brook Road. Built c. 1835, this plank-frame house is the only one (of a significant cluster of such houses in Goshen) which is two or more stories tall. The 2-1/2 story house is framed with three-inch planking laid horizontally, one of only two houses in the group where the planks are not set vertically. The house is five bays wide and two deep, and occupies a prominent position in the Mill Village section of Goshen.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
