Green Acres
Suburban Neighborhood in Manchester, New Hampshire
Hillsborough County 03109
Attractively priced homes sell fast
Most of the houses in Green Acres were built throughout the 20th century. Small midcentury Cape Cods are priced roughly from $330,000 to $650,000, ranch-style houses under 1,000 square feet go for $350,000 and split-level houses from the 1960s are typically around $400,000. The neighborhood also has some new subdivisions, like Pinebrook Place, which came up in the 1990s and Dove and Lavender lanes, two cul-de-sacs where the houses were mostly built after 2010. The real estate market in New Hampshire picked up a bit in early 2023, says Barna. “If a property is priced well, I’ll see 10-15 showings set up in the first few days. One caveat is if it’s in a nice area but needs some work – even just cosmetic work – it seems to turn away potential buyers,” says Barna. “Quality buyers are out there looking for a turnkey home.”Having big fun at small parks
At Medford Park, residents can go for a jog, have a picnic among the foliage or toss around a baseball. Nearby parks include Steven’s Pond Park with a launching spot for boats and canoes and Prout park where kids can enjoy multi-sport courts and a playground.

Themed game nights at the movie theater
In addition to being a movie theater, Chunky’s Cinema Club hosts events like stand-up comedy and improve shows as well as bingo and trivia nights.
A decade of great pizza delivery
Neighborhood favorite Vintage Pizza opened in 2014 serves pizzas made with homemade dough like the steak bomb, with shaved steak, onions, green peppers and mushrooms and a cream sauce. They also have burgers, soups, subs and different types of New Orleans-style beignets. Just down the road, about 3 miles away, is a major retail center that includes big-name tenants like T.J. Maxx, Burlington, Aldi and the nearby Mall of New Hampshire. For some family fun, both Chunky’s Cinema Pub and Cowabunga’s Indoor Kids Play and Party Center are in Center View Plaza

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
