New Hampshire Coastal Living – Photos of NH and Maine Life

           This is one of a number of bridges we have here in the Portsmouth NH area.  Being here on the NH Seacoast, we have water all around us. If you’re looking to live on or close to the water – ocean, bay, rivers, lakes – you’ll love being at home in Portsmouth NH!   [...]

         Rye NH has a great little harbor where you can watch the lobster and fishing boats come and go throughout the day, and you can also, depending on the season, take an excursion boat out for some whale watching.  There are some beautiful homes in Rye NH right along the shores of Rye [...]

                   I was driving along the ocean the other day and came upon this fellow hanging out in one of the Rye Harbor boatyards – looks like he’s lounging in the sun, waiting for some tricks or treats….not sure which! Happy Halloween!!   Images © 2009 Ann Cummings Portsmouth NH REALTOR    Check out [...]

                If you love seafood and lobsters, you simply must come up here to NH and Maine and try it fresh off he boats!  This is one of the local lobster boats, going out of Rye Harbor.  The colorful markers in the back of the boat are used to mark this lobsterman’s string of [...]

          Portsmouth NH is showing some color already, and I’m just not ready to move into fall just yet.  We had such a short summer here this year for some reason, that I want to still be in July.  Because we had such a wet and cool summer this year, we should have a brilliantly [...]

                    This sign says it all!!  This really is LOBSTER COUNTRY!  And we do love our lobsters, especially at the prices we can get them for and so fresh right out of the ocean, too. Newick’s Seafood Restaurant in Dover NH is delicious!  Enjoy the freshest local seafood while overlooking the waters of Great [...]

                         This is Red Sox country up here in New Hampshire, especially along the NH Seacoast areas.  We’re less than an hour from Boston, making it easy to get to their games if you’re inclined to being in the thick of the action.  Being this close also means we usually get all the Red [...]

                  Living here in the Seacoast area of NH provides water views just about everywhere you look.  I love catching unexpected views like this one – I was in Dover Point NH and just happened to look through these trees and spotted these sailboats moored in the Piscataqua River, which is the dividing [...]

               While we have a lot of water all around here in the Seacoast areas, we also have quiet pastoral farmlands, too.  This particular farm happens to combine both.  You can’t tell from this picture, but this farm actually overlooks Great Bay, so it has both pastoral views and water views.  Simply beautiful!

          This picture taken in Stratham NH is another one of those ‘things you find on the side of the road’.  I’ve driven by this location countless times and yet never managed to see this beautiful fountain until recently.  Set off the side of a busy road, just beyond a few groupings of trees [...]
