Boxford Townhome for Sale

Boxford, about 30 miles north of Boston, suits those who prefer general stores to big-box shopping, who enjoy leaping into the cool water of a pond and who love the taste of fresh apple crisp and homemade peach ice cream. “If you like nature, the town is beautiful year-round,” says Mary Rossi, Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty and Boxford resident for nearly 30 years. “In winter, the trees glisten with snow. In fall, the hardwood trees change color and you can watch sunsets on Stevens Pond.” Children in town can attend the highly rated school system, which shares a middle and high school with two neighboring towns. Elementary schools in Boxford are part of the Tri-Town School Union, which serves the towns of Boxford, Topsfield and Middletown. “Each town has two elementary schools, and they join with the other towns for middle and high school,” Rossi explains. Boxford’s youngest learners begin at Harry Lee Cole School for preschool through second grade, then move to Spofford Pond School for grades three through six. Spofford Pond earns an A-minus on Niche, and Cole has not yet been rated. Middle and high school-aged students get the opportunity to mingle with kids from Topsfield
