Shoot. I was hoping for a NH forum house warming by the beach.

A million bucks might buy you one of the few remaining farms or orchards in Londonderry. Most of Manchester Airport is IN Londonderry.

The Million woud buy even more in Auburn, Chester and Derry.

www.nneren.com will give you an idea of what $1M will buy you in the different towns. NH is kind of split east/west by the Merrimack (going north south in nh is easy; east west is not very easy). On the west side, Amherst, Hollis and Bedford fit the bill. You could go north, but that puts you further away from Boston for the occasional trip (Red Sox, museums, dinner in the North end...). On the east side of the river, I have heard good things about Windham and Atkinson....

One town that hasn't been mentioned yet is Hopkinton. It is about a half hour from Manchester and has an excellent school system. It's just outside of Concord, but it's mostly rural with a nice village with lots of beautiful old homes.
