Ipswich Apartment Search
Ipswich has a substantial downtown centered around Market Street, Central Street, and the Ipswich River, with restaurants, shops, banks, municipal services, and other businesses occupying both sides of the rail line. Routes 1A and 133 pass through the center, and the MBTA Newburyport/Rockport Line stops just off Market Street. Beyond downtown, residential streets, farms, coastal marshes, and smaller commercial areas spread across a surprisingly varied landscape. Crane Beach and Castle Hill on the Crane Estate are among the town’s best-known destinations, while the Ipswich River adds boating and other recreation closer to the center. The town’s working farms and long coastline are still visible parts of present-day Ipswich despite its strong rail and road connections. It is one of those places where downtown, riverfront, farmland, and the Atlantic coast all play a noticeable role in the layout of the town.
