Cohasset is a picturesque New England harbor town
Quaint and coastal Cohasset is a rocky, harbor town with hot, humid summers that's known for turning tourists into locals and neighbors into friends. Considered more a village than a town, Cohasset’s charm lies in its proximity to the coast and its picturesque New England appearance. “It’s the first ocean town from Boston,” says Realtor Christine Powers with Coldwell Banker Realty. “It looks like a Norman Rockwell painting with some of the most amazing scenic roads on the ocean.”
