Newmarket NH Real Estate

A small but vital community located in the Seacoast region, Newmarket retains its character as a scenic mill town along the banks of the Lamprey River and Great Bay. The Lamprey River, winding through the tranquil town, is appreciated as a significant recreational asset to the region for fishing, boating, and access to the larger Great Bay tidal basin area. Boaters enjoy voyaging through pristine navigable waterways leading to the Atlantic Ocean.

Only fifty miles from Boston, a short drive from the University of New Hampshire, NH Technical College, Portsmouth business center and with easy access to major highways, Newmarket is well-situated for commuters.

The 2010 population was just under 9,000. Newmarket educates about 1100 students from Pre-K to grade 12. Students in Pre-K to grade 5 attend the Newmarket Elementary School and students from grades 6 -12 go to the Newmarket Jr./Sr. High School. Newmarket students may also enroll in classes at the Seacoast School of Technology in Exeter and at the Dover Vocational Center. Newmarket offers a wider variety of townhomes and single-family homes and there are new neighborhoods under development along with land available for new construction.
