Our Location
You'll love living in Littleton!
Littleton lies 25 miles northwest of Boston, and Hager Homestead’s 15-acre parcel is centrally located on Littleton’s main thoroughfare, King Street. It is right next door to Town Hall, the new Reuben Hoar Library, and the site of a planned new senior center. Sidewalks connect us to downtown with locally-owned small businesses. Nearby is a town green with bandstand, a community farm, and the historical society’s headquarters. Plus, we can stroll across the street to town-owned conservation land with a walking trail.
A little further, amenities include a new shopping center called The Point, with supermarket, movie theatre, hotel, restaurants, urgent care center, and regional chain stores. Long Lake has a town beach for swimming or skating and boats to rent. We’re equidistant from Emerson Hospital in Concord and Nashoba Valley Medical Center in Ayer, both affiliated with major Boston hospitals. Littleton has its own town orchard for apple picking and is home to several farmstands. Connect with the rail trail in nearby Westford or Acton for biking adventures. A new performing arts center and music school is opening in Fall 2022 in the neighboring town of Groton.
Littleton is close to major routes: Route 2 east to Boston or west to the Mohawk Trail; Route 495 north to New Hampshire and Maine or south to Cape Cod. The commuter rail train stops enroute to Boston, with the Littleton station just two miles away.
