Looking to live on New Hampshire’s Seacoast?
New Hampshire’s coastline consists of only 18 miles of shoreline, and if you’re looking for a beachfront property it’s even less than that. The entire Seacoast region is a beautiful area with breathtaking sights. Among the highlights of the Seacoast area are the family-friendly Hampton Beach area and the quickly growing small city of Portsmouth. Hampton Beach is an area that provides day and night activities for all age groups. There are free shows performed at the Shell stadium, fireworks every week, lots of restaurants & shops, and let’s not forget the Casino Ballroom. Which hosts top national entertainers including live music and comedy shows. Alongside all these activities there is a luxurious stretch of white-sand beaches where families can kick back and relax. If kids get too hot in the sun they can cool off by visiting one of the arcades the strip has to offer. The Seacoast is also home to the hip little city of Portsmouth. Portsmouth is a historic port city with cobblestoned streets, bustling downtown with charming shops and restaurants. If you really want to experience the port you can head down to “the decks” which is a stretch of outdoor dining areas located on decks overlooking the harbor. Other attractions on the Seacoast include the Fuller Gardens which are a turn-of-the-century estate garden four miles North of Hampton Beach. The Seacoast Science Center at Odiorne Point State Park, both located in Rye New Hampshire. To begin your home search you can check out the Home Search page!
