Homes near the coast for a comparatively lower price in Seabrook
Sitting on the New Hampshire-Massachusetts border, Seabrook offers coastal living without the higher price tag. “It’s still right on the ocean, but there's a lot of places you can find for a lower price than in the Hamptons,” says Joanna Fiorino, a real estate agent with Keller Williams Realty, who’s been selling homes in the area since 2010. Originally included as part of Hampton, it was incorporated as a separate town in 1768. The town has long been supported by its fishing and farming industries, though the town has made a recent push to advance the community’s tourism.
Coastal-style homes in Seabrook sit just steps from the ocean, offering waterfront living at a lower price point than nearby Hamptons communities.
Residents of Seabrook enjoy the charm of a small coastal town with easy access to the beach.

Traditional and contemporary styles, manufactured homes
While people may be looking to buy a seasonal home in Seabrook, there are plenty of folks who stay here year-round. There are some Cape Cods and national-style homes from as early as the 1800s, as well as ranch-style houses and colonials from the 1900s. Most properties in Seabrook were built within the last 35 years and feature a mix of contemporary and traditional styles. Homes typically sell for $450,000 to $850,000, while homes closest to the water usually go for $1 million to $2 million. Fiorino also says people choose to buy seasonal manufactured homes for an even lower price. “They’re small, but very comfortable vacation homes, and a lot of them come fully furnished,” says Fiorino. Manufactured homes tend to sell for $150,000 to $450,000.

And golfers can head 10 miles north to the Sagamore-Hampton Golf Club for a public, 18-hole course.

Shops and restaurants along Route 1, coastal seafood spots
Most of Seabrook’s businesses are concentrated along U.S. Route 1. “If you go into town, there’s a lot of chains and restaurants available,” says Fiorino. There’s Market Basket and Walmart Supercenter available for essentials, as well as chains like PetSmart, Kohl’s and Lowe’s Home Improvement. Residents can also find popular, locally owned dining spots like Jimmy K's Diner for breakfast and lunch options and Red's Kitchen and Tavern, which has been operating since 1945. The coastal end of Seabrook has its own mix of businesses, including Brown's Lobster Pound, Markey's Lobster Pool and 12 Ocean Grill for seafood options, as well as Tripoli Pizza & Bakery.
