Housing options just south of downtown Manchester

The Bakersville neighborhood sits along the eastern end of the Merrimack River, just 2 miles south of the heart of Manchester. Close to the downtown area, the community's access to shops and amenities is a major part of its appeal. Even with the roar of nearby roads, the southern portion offers more peaceful sounds. Here, potential homebuyers can find Cape Cod and ranch-style homes, as well as duplexes and condos. Most homes are connected to both the river and downtown through a network of uncrowded streets with plenty of space for walking and biking.

Breakfast options and downtown cocktails

There are a number of restaurants both in and around the community. Breakfast options include wraps and pancakes at Unity Café and house-roasted coffee at Eighty Eight Coffee Co. Residents can head to downtown Manchester for additional bars and restaurants. “We have a good scene of craft cocktail-type, small little venues,” says Jodie Nazaka, Director of Economic Development in Manchester. “They have that speakeasy vibe, where you can get a craft cocktail that’s almost a work of art because of the amount of work and ingredients that go into it.” Nearby grocery options include Market Basket, just north of the neighborhood.

Merrimack River trails and minor league games

Alongside the Merrimack River, there are scenic spots and trails to explore. The Riverwalk is a shaded trail used for jogging and biking. It connects to The Hands Across the Merrimack Footbridge, which was constructed from an abandoned rail bridge. Here, folks can gaze out on the river with glimpses of downtown in the background. The bridge also offers views of the Delta Dental Stadium, home to numerous concerts and the New Hampshire Fisher Cats, the city’s Double-A minor league baseball team. Lake Massabesic, a spot for sailing and kayaking, also has additional walking trails.

Taco Tours and Sky Shows

With the Bakersville community situated so close to downtown Manchester, residents can participate in the numerous events held in the heart of the city. In May, the community is home to Taco Tour. “We shut down our downtown, and we have almost 100 businesses participating; they all create their own unique $3.00 taco,” Nazaka says. Sky Show, a major concert each August, includes food, games and some of the largest fireworks presentations in New Hampshire.
