Bradford blends small-town warmth with big-sky scenery along the Connecticut and Waits rivers, right off I‑91 for easy access to the Upper Valley. Outdoor time is front and center, from paddling quiet river bends to climbing the ridgeline at Wright’s Mountain & Devil’s Den, conserved with the help of the Upper Valley Land Trust. You’re minutes from neighboring Newbury and Fairlee, with services and trails that expand your weekend options, and part of well-connected Orange County.
Families appreciate strong local schools. Oxbow High School anchors secondary education, with robust arts, athletics, and college-prep programs, while River Bend Career and Technical Center offers hands-on pathways in trades and technology. The historic village core hosts community gatherings, seasonal festivities, and public amenities through the Town of Bradford, making it easy to plug into clubs, sports, and volunteer life.
Daily needs are covered by local eateries, services, and the region-favorite Farm‑Way, where outdoor gear, footwear, and home goods make four-season living practical. Housing spans classic farmhouses, village capes, and newer construction on quiet roads, providing a range of price points. Commuters find a smooth ride to regional employers across the Upper Valley, while weekends deliver mountain views, river access, and trail time without the crowds.
