Kensington NH Real Estate

Rural with a close-knit population of roughly 2,100, small-town Kensington is about eight miles from the ocean, located along Routes 84, 107, 108, and 150. Charming New England architecture, rolling hills, and farmland define this NH town. The downtown village features two colonial white churches, a red brick library, a volunteer fire department, and a K-5 elementary school. Older students attend the Cooperative Middle School and then high school in nearby Exeter. The expansive Sawyer Park offers amenities for the entire family.

An hour from Boston and nineteen miles from Portsmouth, Kensington works well for commuters that prefer to live in a small rural town surrounded by natural beauty. Single-family homes are generally on large lots and many have room for a garden, horses, and abuts woodlands. There are a few townhomes available and homes styles range from small ranches and capes to sprawling colonials and expansive log homes.
