Historical charm meets commuter convenience

Located just 17 miles south of Boston, South Weymouth is a community that celebrates its historic past and convenient proximity to a metropolitan area—while still making plans for further development and maintaining its own identity. As part of Weymouth, the second-oldest settlement in Massachusetts, South Weymouth offers its residents a short commute to Boston, access to the beach, and affordability when compared to other South Shore communities. “It’s a really exciting atmosphere,” says Rose Mancuso, Realtor with Keller Williams-Boston Northwest and longtime resident of the area. “You have access to so much, and new developments make are coming soon.” As a thriving suburban community, South Weymouth is an enticing option for those looking to be close to what Boston has to offer—but also have enough room to stretch out and relax.

Classic New England style

Homes in the South Weymouth neighborhood reflect the classical styles of New England and demonstrate the old-school charm that makes walking down the street an experience akin to taking a stroll through the past. Walking down Trafalgar Court, for example, showcases styles such as Cape Cods, bungalows, and bi-level properties lining each side of the street. Down Central Street, stunning Colonial and Victorian classics reside on large lots, and Heather Lane features several bi-levels and raised ranches. Condominiums are prevalent as well, and new construction is also present. Prices depend on a home’s style and age, but generally range from $285,000 to $880,000—with condos being on the lower end, and established Colonials/raised ranches on the higher end. “New construction can go for more,” says Mancuso. “Some of the new lots on Massapoag Street go for over $1 million.”

Boston commute made easy

Roughly 30 minutes from downtown Boston, South Weymouth is easily accessed by Route 3 and the Red Line. As a result, South Weymouth is an excellent choice for commuters—not just to and from Boston, but also to Cape Cod and the rest of New England as a whole. Thanks to the location of its own station, South Weymouth also has commuter train service.

No need to go to Boston

South Weymouth’s Columbian Square is home to several unique eateries and businesses, including the popular Montilio’s Bakery—known for their turnovers and other baked goods. Down Main Street, residents can choose between Sombreros—a Mexican eatery known for its margaritas and enchiladas—or Stockholders, a steak and seafood restaurant recently recognized as the best steakhouse in the area by the Patriot Ledger. Whole Foods serves as the one-stop shop for groceries in the neighborhood, with a nearby CVS also serving the community.

Street hockey and hiking

Those looking to get outdoors and appreciate the scenery have plenty of options in South Weymouth. Shea Memorial Drive Hiking Trail provides residents with miles of trail to enjoy. Shea Memorial Grove, meanwhile, offers a modest greenspace idea for a picnic on the site of the former South Weymouth Naval Air Station. For younger residents interested in sports, Columbian Square features a thriving street hockey league. “The kids have a blast there,” says Mancuso. “It’s so popular that they’ve had to build a second court.”

New developments and highly-rated hospitals

Union Point, a new and still evolving 1,400-acre development on the site of the former Naval Air Station South Weymouth, has several developments already complete—with many more on the way. The expectation is that the area will become one of the area’s top commuter-friendly neighborhoods. South Weymouth is also sometimes referred to as “South Shore’s medical Mecca” for its abundance of top-rated medical facilities, such as South Shore Hospital.
