Serene living by Bear Brook State Park
Home to the Bear Brook State Park, Allenstown is a small, peaceful town in Merrimack County. Bordering the Merrimack River on its western tip, Allenstown used to be a lumber mill town that was officially incorporated in 1831. “Allenstown is close to everything,” says Ryan Russell, who is a New Hampshire native and is part of the DUVALTEAM Real Estate with 6 years of experience. “It’s right on the outskirts of Concord so it has the perfect balance of the city and the outdoors.”
