If you're looking for a place with plenty of room for the horses and the dogs; if you want something off the beaten track, but still close to places of commerce, and if you love the four seasons, then look no further than Salisbury!

Salisbury is located about eighteen miles north of Concord, and is one of the most rural areas in a state that is already known for being rural! There are snowmobile trails galore, and mountains. There are caverns, and historic birth places. There are antique stores, and summer plays. There are golf courses and hot air balloon rides. Whatever you can dream of to do and see, you are guaranteed the opportunity to do it here!

The nearby Blackwater Conservation area provides unlimited miles of trails and dirt roads. The area abounds with other recreational possibilities, including good fishing and swimming in nearby rivers. This area is renowned for its beauty, especially in the fall when the colors are spectacular and people come in from all over the world to see the foliage change from green to gold, rust, and copper.

A connection to a statewide snowmobile trails runs through Salisbury, and there is downhill skiing at Ragged Mountain nearby and an inexpensive ski area even closer. It's half an hour drive to the Lakes region, the outlets, International Speedway and Canterbury's Shaker Village.

For those who are looking to buy property the options and prices ranges are almost limitless. There are town homes available, or if you would prefer to have a luxurious, home you can be accommodated as well. Expect to spend anywhere from $40,000 to $800,000 depending on personal preference, style, and taste. Most homes sell in the $100,000 range. Another feature of homes is that even though they may be brand-new they are built to fit in with the rest of the homes, and so have an olde-worlde charm!

This is still largely a rural area, and is a haven for visitors with an abundance of bed and breakfast establishments. Many New Yorkers have moved to this area because of its breathtaking beauty, lakes and attractive schools and economy. But most of all, people move here for the peace and quiet and rural lifestyle this slice of America offers.

Salisbury has much to offer everyone, from the nature lover to the shopper; but most of all, it offers peace of mind to those who are looking for a slower pace in life. Whether you need a summer place, or want to move the family to an area where you feel safe and pampered, Salisbury is it!
