About This Home

As of June 2021

Situated on 1.75 acres surrounded by conservation land on sought after River Street, this 5-bedroom 3.5 bath antique is one of Norwell’s most prized historic homesteads. With well-laid out living space comprised of over 4000 SF, exceptional quality & exquisite craftsmanship are the hallmarks of this classic home. Enter through the glassed-in vestibule & you will immediately be struck by the elegance & charm. The detailed accents such as raised panel wainscoting, moldings & 8 fireplaces throughout exude a sense of style, history & architectural interest. Each room has its own story, like the freshly renovated front living room with gas fireplace & nautical wall covering, a nod to the original owner, shipbuilder Thomas Barstow Sr.. Upstairs are 5 bedrooms, 2 ensuite, plus 3 others with a communal landing for study or rest. With a walking trail for access to the Barque Hill neighborhood, circular drive, detached garage, mature plantings & gardens - this is truly the home of a lifetime!
