The Fells at Amherst Amenities

AMHERST’S CONVENIENT LOCATION AND SMALL TOWN AMBIANCE HAVE MADE IT ONE OF THE MOST SOUGHT-AFTER COMMUNITIES IN SOUTHERN NEW HAMPSHIRE.

Picture a classic New England town in your mind’s eye and you’ll see Amherst. Colonial-era homes and stately shade trees surround a village center that is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Rural lanes lined with old stone walls wind through the town and residents still turn out in droves for the old-fashioned July 4th parade. Acre upon acre of conservation land provides plenty of recreational opportunities all the while preserving the town’s rural flavor.

It’s easy to forget that Amherst is just 10 miles west of downtown Nashua and only a bit farther from downtown Manchester. It is ideally positioned for an easy drive to Boston to the south, the New Hampshire and Maine Seacoast to the east, and the Lakes Region and White Mountains to the north.

Amherst’s convenient location and small town ambiance have made it one of the most sought-after communities in southern New Hampshire. Careful planning has helped it keep its distinctive historic personality while supporting retail and business development to meet the needs of today’s residents.

The town can also take pride in a quality education system, kindergarten through high school, a library that is a hub of community activity with a per capita circulation rate that is among the highest in the state and a recreation department that provides programs to meet the recreational needs of nearly 4000 citizens. The recreation department also operates Peabody Mill Environmental Center, Hartshorn Summer Program and Baboosic Lake Beach. New this past year was a Summer Concert Series on the Common. In addition, recreational opportunities in and around Amherst: include golfing at two eighteen hole courses, a nine hole course, an executive course and driving range; Jasper Valley Swim and Tennis club, Baboosic Lake, and Hampshire Hills Sports and Fitness Club, town recreational sports, trails for hiking. cross-country skiing, and Souhegan River for canoeing.

The July 4th Parade and celebration, the Amherst Tree lighting. Memorial Day Parade, the Library Book Sale, Historical Society Antique Show and Sale, the Amherst PTA Play, Turkey Trot, Community Basket Project, Halloween in the Village, Third Grade Amherst History Unit, AJWC Easter Egg Hunt, Gardeners Plant Sale, Library Monthly Art Exhibits, Amherst Farmers' Market and Town Band Concerts - all provide something for everyone.

The Fells is nestled on a 144-acre wooded site bordered by the Pond Parish Town Forest and conservation land. The 80 home community will be built out in 3 phases.

The old stone walls throughout The Fells are reminders that the site was once pasture land. When livestock no longer grazed its fields, the area reverted to forest. For almost a century, The Fells and the surrounding conservation land and town forest have been a haven for wildlife and nature lovers. Stabile Homes is committed to maintaining more than 75% of the site in its natural state so that the land can continue to support the plants and animals that have made their homes here. Explore all the land at The Fells through a network of walking trails. These trails are close to a railroad bed trail and walking trails that provide access to hundreds of acres of Amherst conservation land and town forest.
