Welcome to Boxford!

Boxford is a residential community in Essex County, approximately 25 miles north of Boston. Boxford was set apart from Rowley Village and incorporated in 1685.

The town is primarily rural in nature, and this character has been maintained by a minimum lot size of 2 acres, which has been unchanged since 1949. Boxford is home to 685 families, two Congregational Churches, and two country stores.

Boxford's Congregational Church at left was built in 1750. The area has dramatic fall foliage and wonderful family histories.
