Quiet subdivisions and conservation land 35 miles north of Boston

Although much of North Broadway’s landscape includes industrial buildings and undeveloped land, the neighborhood’s clusters of single-family homes offer direct access to hiking in conservation areas, quick drives into downtown Haverhill and commutes into Boston via Interstate 495. Located on the northern side of Haverhill, just across the border from New Hampshire, North Broadway offers value and tranquility 35 miles north of Boston.

Single-family homes built in the ‘90s

Subdivisions with single-family homes branch off of Broadway Street in the neighborhood, with popular styles including Colonial Revivals, cottages and ranches. Mature trees separate clusters of homes. Most houses in the neighborhood were built in the 1990s, though there are properties built all throughout the 20th century and new builds scattered throughout. The median home price is around $650,000. Smaller homes sell in the mid- to upper- $400,000s, while larger Colonial Revivals sell for nearly $900,000. “It’s a great place to start in Haverhill,” says Mark Dickinson, local Realtor at Realty One Group Nest. “There are a lot of ranches and little houses that are 1,200 or 1,300 square feet. For a house in average condition, you’ll spend $550,000. You can’t find that kind of value somewhere else. It’s insanity.”

Shopping and dining nearby along Main Street and downtown Haverhill

Commercial and industrial buildings comprise much of North Broadway’s landscape, but shopping and dining options are just minutes away. Big box stores like Target border North Broadway, and Main Street, just east, has restaurants like Starbucks and McDonald’s alongside relaxed local spots such as Mr. Mike’s Restaurant & Lounge. More stores, including T.J. Maxx, Shaw’s and Aldi are just across the New Hampshire border, about 2 miles from the neighborhood. Residents also hang out in downtown Haverhill. Here, locally owned coffee shops, breweries and eateries line Merrimack Street. “There’s all kinds of different venues and lots of pubs downtown, so it’s definitely a younger vibe,” Dickinson says. Holy Family Hospital is 6 miles southeast in Haverhill.
