Town Village Condos in Salem NH: The 55+ Village at Town Center

Your payment has to fit your life, not just your approval letter.

When you move to a 55+ community, that matters even more. You want room for travel, the grandkids and the things you love.

Maybe you're excited to be done with the yard, and a little nervous about the fee and the rules. If you feel stuck on that, you aren't alone. It's one of the first things my partners and I walk through with you.

Here's what the homes are like, what your fee pays for, and what to check before you write an offer.

Less yard work is the goal. A payment you feel good about is the deal.

Where is Town Village?

Town Village, the Village at Town Center, sits on Town Village Drive in Salem NH, zip code 03079.

I-93 runs through Salem NH at Exits 1 and 2, and Boston is about 33 miles away by car. Listing records note shops, a park, trails and quick highway access nearby.

There's no train in town. Boston Express buses leave from the transportation center at Exit 2 for South Station and Logan Airport. Check the current schedule before you count on it.

What kinds of homes are in Town Village?

You'll mostly find condex style homes. That's two homes side by side that share one wall.

The community was built in 2005 and has about 32 homes, per MLS PIN listing records. The one home in MLS PIN records had two bedrooms and 2,072 square feet, so these homes give you real room.

Ask about the layout before you tour. Some homes have more space on more than one floor.

How much do condos in Town Village sell for?

MLS PIN records show one sale in Town Village from October 2024 to October 2026, at $625,000.

Source: MLS PIN, condo sales in Town Village (the Village at Town Center), Salem NH, October 2024 to October 2026, pulled October 16, 2026. Most condos in Salem NH sell through NEREN, the New Hampshire MLS, so MLS PIN shows only part of the picture.

One sale isn't an average. Most condos in Salem NH sell through NEREN, the New Hampshire MLS, so MLS PIN misses most of them.

What does the Town Village condo fee cover?

Your fee covers the outside: the grounds, the road, the snow and the trash.

Per MLS PIN listing records, it covers:

• Upkeep on the outside of the homes
• Road upkeep
• Lawn care and snow removal
• Trash pickup

The fee in the MLS PIN sale was $400 a month. Master insurance isn't on that list. Ask how the buildings are insured, and what your own policy has to cover.

What amenities are there in Town Village?

You're paying for easy upkeep here, not a pool or clubhouse.

MLS PIN listing records don't show a pool or clubhouse. Listing records do note a park and trails nearby. Pets are allowed, and some listings note limits, so read the pet rules before you offer.

Is Town Village a 55+ community?

Yes. Town Village is an age restricted 55+ community, per MLS PIN listing records.

Federal fair housing law lets housing for older persons set age rules. For 55+ communities, at least 80 percent of homes need at least one resident who is 55 or older. Each community writes its own rules on top of that. Get the exact rule in writing from the condo papers, including what happens if you want to rent or sell later.

How are the schools and taxes for Town Village?

Taxes matter most here, so run the real bill on the home you like. If you want school facts, the state's school reports site has them by address.

The Salem NH School District, SAU 57, serves the town.

The 2025 tax rate is $18.16 per $1,000 of assessed value, per the town. A 2026 revaluation is under way. That's when the town updates every value to match the market. So don't multiply a new value by the old rate. New Hampshire has no state income tax on wages. Our Salem NH schools and property taxes guide goes deeper.

What are the pros and tradeoffs of Town Village?

Here's what I'd tell you across the table.

The good:

• A small community of about 32 homes.
• Roomy homes that only share one wall.
• Your outside work, snow and trash are handled.
• Quick trips to I-93 and the shops in Salem NH.

The tradeoffs:

• No pool or clubhouse listed.
• Master insurance isn't on the fee list, so ask how the buildings are covered.
• A higher tax rate than many Massachusetts towns, with a revaluation coming.

Who should compare Town Village with what?

If you like Town Village, you may want to see these too. Each shows one sale in MLS PIN records from October 2024 to October 2026, so treat the numbers as a single data point.

• The Club at Meadowbrook in Salem NH: a 55+ low rise from 2004. One sale at $510,000. Fee $462.
• Del Ray Place in Windham NH: a 55+ community from 2021 with detached homes and a clubhouse. One sale at $745,000. Fee $402.
• Artisan at Tuscan Village in Salem NH: one level condos with an elevator, a pool and a gym, with no age rule. One sale at $910,000. Fee $834.

Compare your full monthly cost, not just the price. Add the insurance you'd carry yourself when the fee doesn't cover it.

What should buyers check before an offer in Town Village?

Read the condo papers before you fall in love. Ask for these:

• How the buildings are insured, and what your own policy needs to cover.
• The budget and how much is saved in reserves, which is money saved for big fixes.
• Any special assessments. That's an extra bill owners pay for a big project.
• The age rule, plus pet rules and rental rules.
• The last year of meeting minutes. That's where talk about roofs, paving and money shows up first.

Condos in New Hampshire follow the state's condo law and each community's own papers. Every buyer gets a lender who runs the numbers before every offer, with your fee and tax bill built in.

What should sellers in Town Village know?

Your buyer is often ready to be done with the yard and wants the next home to feel easy.

Show them the space, the one shared wall and the easy upkeep. Presentation and preparation matter. Have your condo papers and the age rule ready early, because buyers ask for them fast.

Price is your choice. We'll walk you through accurate similar sales from both MLS systems so you can choose with confidence.

I'll guide you home.
