A Local's Perspective
New Hampshire's Southern Coastal Gateway
Seabrook was first settled by the English in 1638, part of the broader Hampton/Winnacunnet plantation before splitting off and formally incorporating as its own town on June 3, 1768. Its name comes straight from its geography: the many brooks and tidal creeks that wind through the town's extensive salt marshes on their way to the Atlantic. Quaker farming and fishing families gave the early settlement its small-town character, and the town's Meetinghouse Green Historic District still reflects that colonial-era core today.
Seabrook sits at the very southeastern corner of New Hampshire — the first town drivers reach heading north on I-95 out of Massachusetts — bordered by Hampton and Hampton Falls to the north, South Hampton and Kensington to the west, and the Massachusetts towns of Salisbury and Amesbury to the south and southwest. That border-town position, combined with New Hampshire's lack of a sales tax, has long made Seabrook a retail and fireworks-shopping destination for Massachusetts shoppers, while its roughly 2 miles of Atlantic coastline at Seabrook Beach draw a mix of year-round residents and multi-generational summer-cottage families.
The town's defining modern landmark is Seabrook Station, New Hampshire's only nuclear power plant, which began commercial operation in 1990 and remains one of the region's largest employers and taxpayers — town officials have put its recent share of Seabrook's total tax levy at roughly 25-30%, a legacy of a plant that reportedly covered as much as 90% of the town's taxes in earlier decades. That outsized commercial tax base is a big part of why Seabrook has historically carried one of the lower property tax rates on the New Hampshire seacoast. Housing demand has stayed strong even so: Zillow put the town's average home value at roughly $542K in mid-2026, while other aggregators reported a median sale price closer to $690K (up about 12% year-over-year) — a gap that likely reflects Seabrook Beach's much pricier waterfront stock (with a reported 12-month median near $1.32M) pulling sale-price medians well above the town-wide average that includes inland and manufactured housing.
