A rare opportunity to own one of Norwell's historic treasures. Beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated, this extraordinary home seamlessly blends more than three centuries of history with the comfort and convenience of modern living. Set on 1.4 private acres beside Shipyard Park, the property offers direct access to the North River for kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming or watching the sunset atop Fox Hill. Inside, timeless architectural details are complemented by exceptional updates and a functional floor plan. The beautifully renovated country kitchen features granite countertops, a Viking professional range, Bosch dishwasher, French-door Samsung refrigerator, generous pantry, and additional storage. Unlike many antique homes, there is abundant storage throughout, including multiple closets in two bedrooms and charming built-in bench seating with hidden storage. The spacious primary suite includes a renovated bath highlighted by a classic claw-foot soaking tub, while refinished hardwood floors, beautifully updated bathrooms, and period details create warmth and character throughout. Extensive recent improvements include a standing-seam metal roof, cedar shingle siding, replacement windows, updated furnaces, whole-house generator, whole-house water filtration system, and french drain—allowing you to enjoy the charm of a 17th-century home with the reliability expected today.
