Beautifully Unique Development Opportunity in Downtown Exeter, NH An exceptional chance to own over 1.5 acres in the heart of vibrant downtown Exeter. Located within the MUND Overlay District, this property encourages a blend of residential and commercial development, offering flexibility and strong future potential. Rich with local history, the 16,000+ sq ft building originally served as a rubber step manufacturing plant for wagon wheels in the early 1900s, and for the past 40 years has been home to the Exeter Handkerchief Factory. The site offers an extraordinary canvas for redevelopment. Bordering the Amtrak rail line—with daily service from Exeter to Boston—and just a short walk to downtown Exeter’s shops and restaurants as well as Phillips Exeter Academy, this location is unbeatable. A rare investment and redevelopment opportunity in one of New Hampshire’s most desirable towns.
