Fremont is a rural village between Manchester and the Atlantic
Fremont is a historic New Hampshire village situated in the vast woodlands between Manchester and the Atlantic coast. The town traces its roots back to the 1700s, when it was a timber town that supplied eastern white pines for British ship masts. Since then, it has left its manufacturing past behind and is known for its rural lifestyle and bountiful forest scenery. Its rich history can still be seen around town at places like the Fremont Meeting House, Fremont Town Hall and the 1820 Country Market and Deli, all of which are more than a century old. “It’s a sleepy country town and that’s what people are looking for when they move here. The Main Street is very small. You blink and you miss it,” says broker Karen Lopilato of Classic Homes Realty, who has been working in real estate in the area for more than 40 years.

I’ve sold a handful of brand-new homes in Fremont,” Lopilato says. Prices range from around $380,000 to $750,000, depending on size, age and acreage, putting it on par with the statewide median.

Rockingham Recreational Trail’s Fremont Branch cuts through the wilderness, offering residents a place to walk, run and bike during the summer months. When it’s cold and snowy, it’s common to see people cross-country skiing or riding snowmobiles. The trail, which is set along a former railroad right-of-way, runs for 25 miles through the countryside and connects with nearby towns like Derry and Hampstead. There are also several hiking areas in Fremont — Glen Oakes Conservation Area and Oak Ridge Town Forest — where people can get out and enjoy the fresh air. Pawtuckaway State Park, about 7 miles north, is one of the largest state parks in southern New Hampshire. It’s a well-known destination for boating, fishing, camping and hiking.
