Waterfront Dover homes and new developments
Just southeast of downtown Dover, the Dover Point community is a residential area located between the Bellamy and Piscataqua Rivers.

Classic seafood dishes are served at Newick's Lobster House. Hannaford is nearby, as well as Tendercrop Farm, a store full of locally sourced produce.

Green and blue views at Hilton Park
Hilton Park is the primary green space for those who live in the Dover Point Area. Situated where the Piscataqua River meets the Great Bay, the park offers places to relax and a playset in the same spot where Edward Hilton, the father of New Hampshire, first landed back in 1623. “You can always see a ton of family gatherings there as well as people making use of the public boat launch,” Parks says.
In Dover Pointe, the playground at Hilton Park is more than just equipment; it's a place where childhood memories are made, filled with laughter, sunshine, and the simple joy of play.
