Charlestown NH Real Estate
Charlestown lines the Connecticut River in Sullivan County, south of Claremont and north of Bellows Falls, Vermont across the water. The town holds one of New Hampshire's longest historic Main Street districts - a sustained stretch of Federal and Greek Revival architecture that reflects Charlestown's prominence as an 18th-century Connecticut River settlement. Fort at No. 4, a reconstructed colonial fortification just north of the village, marks the site of what was once the northernmost English settlement on the Connecticut River in the mid-18th century and now operates as a living history museum. The river forms the town's western boundary, contributing agricultural land and scenic character to the lower portions of the community.
