About Northfield
Northfield sits on the north bank of the Merrimack River directly opposite Tilton, connected by the Bridge Street bridge and sharing the Tilton-Northfield commercial corridor along I-93. Tilton School, a respected independent boarding school, is located here. The town is an affordable gateway to the Lakes Region — Laconia and Lake Winnipesaukee are 20 minutes north — making it increasingly popular with remote workers and buyers seeking the northern NH lifestyle at accessible prices.
