Historic Portsmouth

PORTSMOUTH NH

“When people think of historic neighborhoods, the South End most often comes to mind,” says Sandra Rux, museum and collections manager for the Portsmouth Historical Society. The oldest part of the city, where settlers landed in the 17th century, “really does resemble an old colonial town,” says Rux, “with everything squeezed in on all kinds of lot sizes.”

The neighborhood that abuts the Strawbery Banke museum, Prescott Park and the Piscataqua River is within easy walking distance of Market Square, downtown shopping and Portsmouth’s many fine restaurants. Houses in the district generally run in the $400,000 to $800,000 range,  though prices have been dampened somewhat by the recession. A home on Newcastle Avenue that sold for $499,000 five years ago was back on the market at an overly optimistic $629,000 last spring. It is now being offered at $450,000.
