Named for the salt marshes that surround the area, Marshfield is a seaside community in Plymouth County that offers residents a highly rated school system, miles of coastline and a charming general store owned by actor Steve Carell. Broker/owner Kristin Dewey with Kornerstone Realty is a longtime resident of Marshfield. She notes that the town, situated between Cape Cod and Boston, comprises several neighborhoods, almost like boroughs. Marshfield's housing stock also varies by neighborhood.
