You may think this beachy town thrives in the summer, but winter can be just as fun. People bundle up and gather at the local elementary school pond for ice skating, hockey games and impromptu parties with fire pits and lots of food.

The Market:
When old meets new.

Nowadays, you’ll find not only antique Victorians but also new colonials and Cape Cod-style homes. Property sizes range from 0.15 acres to 0.35 acres, so you’ll likely become good friends with your neighbors.
