A lovely New England Town - Amesbury, MA 5 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) Amesbury MA, is such a cute suburban town. My family has lived in the area for the past twenty years. The area has many cul-de-sacs and beautiful yards. It reminds me of how New England would be described in a story book. It is just very lovely all around.

The town is fifteen ...Read More minutes from the beach. Salisbury, Hampton, Seabrook and Newburyport beaches are right around the corner. I love going to the beaches around here. The people are very friendly and the atmosphere is fun and inviting.

Property taxes can be a little high. However, for the great area, it is worth every penny. There are so many different restaurants in the area. Many of them sell fresh seafood and a New England favorite, lobster. Downtown Amesbury has the cutest shops and restaurants. The Ale House is one of my favorite places to go. I meet up with my friends here after work a lot. The food and drinks are great! Read Less
