Andover Massachusetts Real Estate
Andover, Massachusetts is located in Essex County, the most northerly county in the eastern part of Massachusetts. From the early days of the town, manufacturing was a major concern. The town's first powder mill was established in 1775; the manufacture of paper began in 1789; and in the early nineteenth century, woolen mills, a major New England industry of the era, were constructed. While many early businesses have since moved elsewhere, the town continues to attract major industry.
In recent decades, Andover has emerged as a highly affluent community with a strong economic base. Conveniently located near the intersection of two major highways, the town is well within commuting distance of Boston, and just a short drive away from the Massachusetts seashore and the White Mountains of New Hampshire. An accessible location and great potential for growth have attracted many professionals to the town over the years.
The community's real estate market has historically been strong and resistant to economic downturns. Municipal government remains commitment to stability and excellence in services along with maintenance of the highly regarded public school system. The town also offers top-quality private schooling opportunities at Phillips Academy and the Pike School. A thriving suburban community and an industrial leader in its own right, Andover offers an abundance of economic and cultural resources for professionals, families and businesses alike.

Newburyport, Massachusetts Real Estate
Newburyport, Massachusetts has a population of more than 16,000, which continues to grow each year as people are attracted to this historic seaside town. A short drive from both the New Hampshire border and the state capital of Boston, it is among the most beautiful towns in Massachusetts, with a bounty of ocean views and scenic architecture dating from as early as the 17th century.
Originally settled as part of "Newberry Plantation" in 1635, the community was incorporated separately under its present name in 1764. Situated at the mouth of the Merrimack River, the community prospered as a shipbuilding, manufacturing and maritime trade center, gaining city status in 1851. While the thriving downtown was in danger of being razed to make way for new retail establishments in the 1970s, local efforts halted the new plans and instead precipitated the community's emergence as a major historic destination on the North Shore. Many of the houses in the area date from 19th century, while the original downtown, recently restored to its colonial-era splendor, has been named a National Historic Landmark. Once a major port on the Atlantic Ocean, Newburyport was the birthplace of the United States Coast Guard.
The first community in the state of Massachusetts to complete a master plan, Newburyport now boasts a strong tourist industry. The public school system is small, but more than adequate for the size of the town. There are also several private schools in the area. Students in the community have excellent opportunities to continue their education beyond high school at one of the many nearby colleges and universities.
