North Shore Real Estate · Straight answer from Kathleen
What's it like living in Newburyport?
Newburyport is the North Shore's showpiece downtown: brick streets, an active waterfront on the Merrimack, restaurants and shops that hold year-round, and the commuter rail line ending right in town.

- Is Newburyport worth the price for its downtown and waterfront?
The town center is a working, walkable downtown rather than a tourist stage set, and the riverfront, parks, and beach at Plum Island keep the seasons alive. It is one of the most sought-after addresses on the coast.
Housing ranges from Federal-era homes in the downtown to neighborhoods and waterfront properties, and demand keeps values among the strongest in the region, with a market that holds its own in most seasons.
For buyers, Newburyport offers the full package: village life, river and sea, shops and restaurants, and a train to Boston. It commands a premium because it delivers.
On the North Shore
Newburyport sits at the northern end of my coastal market, where Essex County gives way to the Merrimack. It is a town where the commute works and the lifestyle is complete, which is a hard combination to beat.
