A peaceful community in Chelmsford
Partially outlined by River Meadow Brook, Roberts Ranches is a residential enclave adjacent to Chelmsford’s downtown area. The community is in proximity to the restaurants and shops in Chelmsford Center, highways such as U.S. Route 3 and abundant natural areas for outdoor activities. Residents here are also zoned for the highly rated Chelmsford Public Schools, which can be a big draw for homebuyers with children. Aside from several businesses, the area remains residential; neighbors are often out on evening walks with their pets, and children also get together to play around the suburban blocks. “We have a small downtown that’s got great restaurants, breweries and night spots,” says Angela Caputo Griswold, a local resident and Realtor at ERA Key Realty Services with 6 years of experience. “Chelmsford has a supportive community with points of interest and neighborhood Facebook groups. You can definitely find support here and the people are very nice.”
