About Goffstown

Goffstown was incorporated on 16 June 1761 and lies directly west of Manchester, with 18,577 residents at the 2020 census. The Piscataquog River runs through the main village and powered the mills that built it.

The twin Uncanoonuc Mountains sit in the southwestern part of town and are the landmark you navigate by from most directions. Saint Anselm College is here, along with the New Hampshire Institute of Politics, which puts on presidential debates and gives a town of this size an oddly national profile every four years.

Goffstown is really several villages rather than one place. Grasmere and Pinardville each have their own feel, and the housing varies accordingly. Pinardville in particular sits right up against Manchester and behaves more like a city neighbourhood than a New Hampshire town.

A town made of villages does not have a single answer to the garage question. Pinardville, hard against the Manchester line, is dense: small lots, older houses, and the same setback constraints we deal with inside the city itself. Out toward the Uncanoonucs and the western part of town, properties open up considerably.

In the tighter areas the realistic options are an attached build where the house layout allows it, or a single bay carefully placed. Neither is a compromise if it is done properly, and off street parking in a dense neighbourhood is worth a great deal.

In the more open parts of town we are usually talking about a detached two or three car structure with room around it, and often about what goes above the bays.

We build across all of it. The free in-home estimate exists precisely so nobody has to guess which version applies to their street.

Mill River Town

The Piscataquog And What It Means For Your Lot

The river cuts straight through the middle of Goffstown, and the village grew up around the water power it provided. That history left a town where a lot of the older housing sits close to the river, on ground that has been built on for a very long time.

Two practical consequences follow. The first is drainage, which matters more the closer you are to the water, and which a new slab and roof will affect. The second is that on long-settled ground there is often more underneath than anyone has a record of: old foundations, filled ground, previous structures.

Neither is a reason not to build. Both are reasons to look properly before quoting, which is what we do.
