Andover NH Real Estate
Andover occupies the Blackwater River valley in Merrimack County, east of the Lake Sunapee region with the Blackwater flowing south through town toward the Contoocook. The town has three village areas - Potter Place, Andover Village, and East Andover - each with a quiet agricultural character. Proctor Academy, a private boarding and day school founded in 1848 and located in Andover Village, is the town's most significant institution and a steady draw for affiliated families and staff.
Andover NH Homes for Sale
Andover's real estate is predominantly single-family homes on larger rural lots - older farmhouses, colonials, and capes distributed across the town's road network and village areas. The Blackwater River and several smaller ponds contribute a modest waterfront segment. Buyers seeking rural character with reasonable proximity to New London and the I-89 corridor find Andover a practical option. Private wells and septic systems are standard throughout.
