It is a Franklin style stove probably late 70s to early 80s. Worth at most $150 but probably less. Also a very dangerous install as many of those were

I buy and sell used wood stoves for a hobby and I see stoves similar to this on Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist. Some people have a hard time selling them. I have seen them priced for $125.00 to $50.00 and some even give them away. But hard to say what will happen in your area. I would start at $150.00 with BO. When it comes to used wood stoves these types stove rank low on the list. Not trying to be negative but sharing what I have observed watching the market on used wood stove.

You couldn't pay me to take this.

I restore in northern VT, and deal with your area alot as well. These old franklin stoves are basically worth scrap. Sometimes you might get lucky and someone will give you $100 for it if they are in a rush and impulse buy, but these are literally given away more than actually bought online.
I charge milage +50 to pick them up and scrap them for people. Normally a better option to just find a local scrapper that will take it for free.

Welcome to the site. This is the feedback I thought. Cheers!

If you know any artists in your area that deal with cast iron they would be happy to take it off your hands.

I paid someone $20, I think, to scrap a fireplace insert a few years ago. Think I have a few number to call in my phone. I can post them, if you need to go that route.

I have used a few of them as patio stoves they work pretty well untill they fall apart after a few years

They do make a great outdoor fireplace for s’mores and hot cider!
