  • Linn C.
    "Townsend is a pretty New England town west of Boston. It is noted for it's quiet, friendly people, good schools, and easy access to nearby shopping in either Leominster or Southern NH. The Squannicook River runs cool and clear and offers excellent fishing! Townsend's open space is protected by State forests and Townsend Conservation Land Trust lands and offers excellent hiking trails. Plans are in the works for a new regional high school to replace the existing North Middlesex Regional HS which also services Ashby and Pepperell. Less than 20 minutes to MBTA commuter station in Fitchburg. Townsend's new library and senior center are fantastic and conveniently located near the Town center. In the summer the Townsend Military band plays on the commons every Thursday evening. "

    "The area is protected from any new construction front, back and all open land area. There a lot of land and wooded surrounding areas. Lots of privacy, low traffic in development and traffic mostly is from the residence. Quiet, wooded and country with lots of privacy. Great neighborhood for adults and children alike"
