A substantial Concord home offering space, privacy, flexibility and thoughtful updates for years of comfortable living and enjoyment.
North Bridge Historic District, located between Concord Center and Minute Man National Historical Park, is a historic and riverside Concord neighborhood with colonial-era landmarks and wooded trails. The character concentrates around the North Bridge visitor area on Monument Street, where interpretive paths, river overlooks, and tour activity set a reflective, walk-first pace. The Old North Bridge and The Old Manse frame the landscape with Revolutionary-era architecture and literary history. Sleepy Hollow Cemetery adds a quiet, sculptural counterpoint of stonework and shaded lanes. Along the Concord River, footpaths link meadows, footbridges, and seasonal foliage. A short walk toward town brings Concord Museum and local cafés into the day-to-day rhythm.
