About this home

Set along scenic and historic River Street, this spacious 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath Colonial offers more than an acre of beautifully landscaped grounds and a private backyard oasis.

Inside, the updated kitchen, refreshed first-floor half bath, custom mudroom lockers and family room with built-ins combine style with everyday function. The full walkout lower level opens directly to the pool area and offers exceptional entertaining and flex space, including a custom mahogany wet bar with kegerator, gas fireplace, game room, gym area, full bath and additional living space. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a primary suite with walk-in closet, Jacuzzi soaking tub and separate shower. Additional highlights include finished loft space over the oversized two-door garage, a new front portico and a bluestone walkway. **A truly spectacular home offering space, style and a resort-like setting in one of Norwell’s most picturesque locations.
