Brady Circle sits in Plaistow, New Hampshire — one of those quiet residential pockets in a town that has become a magnet for Massachusetts buyers crossing the border. Tucked off the town's main corridors, streets like Brady Circle offer the small-town residential feel while the commercial heart of Plaistow is minutes away. Here's what the area and the town around it offer.
Plaistow: Small Town on the State Line
Plaistow (03865) sits on the southern edge of New Hampshire in Rockingham County, right against the Massachusetts border. The town blends historic Main Street homes, midcentury Cape Cods and ranches, and newer subdivisions on rolling lots. It's the kind of town where families moving up from Massachusetts find more house and more land — plus New Hampshire's tax structure, including no state income tax. The Timberlane Regional School District — Pollard Elementary, Timberlane Regional Middle School, and Timberlane Regional High School — serves the town.
Route 125: Everything You Need, Minutes Away
The Route 125 commercial corridor is Plaistow's practical superpower. Big-box anchors like Market Basket, Walmart, and Home Depot line the corridor on the New Hampshire side, along with local favorites like Earl Bird Cafe and PPC Kitchen and Bar. Weekly errands, dining, and home-improvement runs are a short drive from the town's residential streets.
Recreation and Community
Plaistow keeps its small-town character with real outdoor options: the Plaistow Athletic Recreation Complex, the Plaistow Town Forest with its trails, and the Plaistow Fish & Game Club. The town's calendar includes Old Home Day and seasonal community celebrations.
The Commute
Plaistow is built for commuters. Route 125 connects to I-495 and I-93, putting Boston and its amenities within about a 40-mile drive. That positioning — New Hampshire living with Massachusetts job-market access — is exactly why the town's residential streets stay in demand.
Best for: Buyers who want small-town New Hampshire living — trees, space, and community — with big-box convenience and border-state commute access. Price context: Reach out for current figures — Plaistow values shift with the market. Vibe: Quiet residential streets minutes from everything, with a genuine small-town core.
