Types of apartment in Dover, NH
Dover, NH has a mix of apartments in older mill-era buildings, small multifamily houses, and newer complexes. Near downtown and around Central Avenue, many apartments sit in brick buildings with tall windows, flat roofs, and simple storefronts below.

Inside, layouts can include smaller bedrooms, updated kitchens, and less closet space in older places. Houses for rent show up too, often as capes and colonials with detached garages or larger lots.Toward South Dover and near the Spaulding Turnpike, apartments often shift to newer garden-style buildings and townhouse-style rentals with larger parking areas and more uniform layouts.

Around the Cochecho River and the old mill areas, apartments can have exposed brick, beams, and higher ceilings, but parking can be tighter. In Somersworth-facing parts of the city, the housing mix often feels more spread out, with small apartment buildings mixed into residential blocks.
