A town steeped in history
Once inhabited by native peoples and Dutch traders, the town of Longmeadow, Massachusetts was initially settled in the 17th century and has since grown gradually to a population of some 15,000 people. Now a destination for outdoor exploration, several parks populate the wooded areas, with four brooks feeding into the Connecticut River immediately west. There is plenty to do both outdoors and indoors in this waterfront town. “In Longmeadow, you’re close to culture,” says Realtor Colleen Westberg of Coldwell Banker Realty. “The Berkshire Theatres are minutes away.” Its proximity to the water and the charming selection of single-family homes puts Longmeadow in demand.
Longmeadow is a historic town with great schools, homes, and shopping.

Getting outdoors to the Wildlife Refuge
To get the whole experience, spending time outdoors in Longmeadow essential. The Fannie Stebbins Memorial Wildlife Refuge sits on the riverbank, where locals can watch swans and geese drift by or follow the railroad tracks along the water’s edge. The trails make for a pleasant and easy day hike unless the landscape is covered in snow, of course. Fishing for bass is a popular pastime, as is bird watching from the wildlife viewing hut. The Longmeadow Brook is an excellent spot to relax by the water’s edge on a hot day. Over at Bliss Park, folks can practice their serve on the tennis courts or shoot hoops. There’s also a playground for little ones with jungle gym amenities like monkey bars and a miniature rock wall.
There is beautiful fauna and wild life at the Longmeadow Nature Preserve.

Older builds with charm
This town has a pseudo-suburban feel with intersecting cul-de-sacs that wind through the dense trees. “The homes have beautiful architecture, and you’re close to Hartford and Downtown Springfield,” says Westberg. Various housing types are available, including ranch styles, Tudor Revivals and Cape Cods, most in a two-story and three-bedroom layout. Brick facades with sharply slanted roofs and shuttered windows hail from another century. Most of these homes have small yards with a few decorative trees or shrubs, but some have large lots fit for hosting friends and family. Pricing ranges between $380,000 and $750,000.
A sidewalk is key to a walking town like Longmeadow and a lovely craftsmen style home to boot.

What to do when visiting Longmeadow
For those looking to learn more about the area, the Longmeadow Historical Society is a great way to spend the weekend indoors. Located in a 1786 Georgian-style house, the organization provides access to maps, diaries, and photos documenting the histories of the town’s earliest families. In addition to lending unique furniture items to other historical organizations, the staff sponsors and organizes the Long Meddowe Days, a celebration reflecting on the community’s history. For a seasonal affair, locals can check out the Longe Meddowe Fall Festival, which consists of arts and crafts, food and live music in October. And, of course, the Berkshire Theatres have an extensive list of musicals and plays.

Navigating Longmeadow
The PVTA bus route winds through Longmeadow and then connects to Interstate 91, reaching Hartford several miles south. Driving is still the most practical option for accessing surrounding cities, and folks can walk from point A to point B for everything closer. “You can walk a lot of places,” says Westberg, “and you can certainly take a train from Springfield to, well…anywhere.”
