About This Property

A once-in-a-generation opportunity on one of Norwell's most beautiful and storied roads. Rarely does a property of this scale, character and setting become available. Set well back from River Street on 5.4 breathtaking acres, this captivating c.1850 Antique Colonial is surrounded by sweeping lawns, magnificent mature trees, historic stone walls and a classic New England barn. A winding circular drive leads through the grounds, revealing a property that feels wonderfully private, pastoral and almost untouched by time. Inside, 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths are complemented by a collection of warm and inviting spaces rich with period character. Thoughtfully expanded over the years, the home beautifully bridges its history with modern living. A more recent kitchen addition creates a light-filled heart of the home, with soaring cathedral ceilings and expansive views across the backyard and picturesque grounds. Multiple living and entertaining spaces offer flexibility while retaining the warmth and authenticity that make an antique home so special. Outside, more than five acres of open lawn, mature landscape, stone walls and the classic barn create an idyllic setting for entertaining, gardening, recreation or simply enjoying the remarkable peace and privacy. A whole-house generator provides added peace of mind, and at the buyer's request, the sellers may install a new Title V septic system. Located along one of the South Shore's most scenic country roads, moments from Norwell Center, top-rated schools and commuter routes, 378 River Street represents an increasingly rare opportunity: extraordinary land, enduring history and an incomparable sense of place. A property like this may come along only once in a lifetime. Showings begin Thursday 9/2
