Ideal for those envisioning life along the coast, North Weymouth is a charming neighborhood with unparalleled water views of the Boston skyline, convenient access to surrounding areas and idyllic New England architecture that includes historic colonials and Cape Cods.
Residents who don’t live directly on the water have many opportunities to be near it in North Weymouth. Folks can sunbathe or take a walk during low tide at Wessagussett Beach, a sandy spot east of Wessagussett Yacht Club, or venture over to Great Hill Park with a chair and a book and take in the views of the Weymouth Fore River. Webb Memorial State Park, a peninsula that extends into Hingham Bay, also offers incredible views of the city and is a popular spot for hiking and fishing. “Abigail Adams is another great park that not many people know about,” says Mancuso. This recreational gem is used for fishing and picnicking and features walking trails with plaques that contain information about Adams, the second woman to serve as First Lady. For a little more history of the area or to check out a new book, North Weymouth residents can visit the recently renovated Tufts Library and its neighboring playground on Broad Street or access one of Weymouth’s Little Free Libraries.
Rose Mancuso, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty who has sold properties in the Boston area for almost two decades, notes that many North Weymouth homes were built in the late 1800s and early 1900s, a time when Colonial Revival and wooden shingle-style properties were popular. North Weymouth also features condominium buildings constructed in the 1970s and 1980s and updated Cape Cods from the 1950s that are within walking distance of the beach. “Closer to the water, there are plenty of smaller properties and some beach bungalows," Mancuso says. Home sizes range from around 500 to 2,800 square feet, and prices span from $325,000 to $2 million.
Weymouth offers several opportunities for the community to come together at local events like school vacation movie and sing-along nights and the Weymouth Farmers Market held at different locations around town, including Maria Weston Chapman Middle School during the winter months. The farmers market is also the site of festive events throughout the year, including an artisan fair and Kid's Day in the summer and the Pumpkin Give-a-Wey in the fall.
North Weymouth has plenty of places to dine, such as True North Kitchen + Bar, a burger and Detroit-style pizza restaurant that is also one of Mancuso’s favorite spots. Locals also love the daily specials and trivia night at The Mooring Bar & Grill on Bridge Street and the popular Turmeric House, an Indian and Nepalese gourmet eatery. For quick errands, there's Riverway Plaza with big-box stores, including Lowe's and Staples. To grab the weekly groceries, North Weymouth residents can head about 1.5 miles east on Lincoln Street to nearby Hingham, where they'll find Stop & Shop, Trader Joe's and The Fresh Market.
Area students attend Weymouth Public Schools, a district with several primary schools, including Wessagusset, rated a C-plus by Niche, that feed into Weymouth Middle School, which earns a B rating and is divided into two campuses: Adams for fifth and sixth grades and Chapman for grades seven and eight. The culinary lab program at the Chapman campus offers incredible courses like Farm to Table and Entrepreneurial Culinary Lab in an updated kitchen facility with refrigerators stocked with locally grown items. “Their culinary lab is more like a world-renowned cooking school,” Mancuso says. Weymouth High, which receives a B-minus from Niche, offers students several specialty academies, including the Business & Entrepreneurial, STEM and Fine Arts academies.
Traveling around and through North Weymouth is a breeze. Three bus routes merge in the community, and Route 3-A, the original Boston-to-beach thoroughfare, bisects the neighborhood. North Weymouth is about an hour away from Boston via the Red Line at Braintree Station or Greenbush Line at Quincy Center station.
