About this home
A rare opportunity to own one of Norwell's historic treasures. Beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated, the extraordinary Shipwright’s House 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 North River views in the winter and access for kayaking, paddleboarding or swimming. Timeless architectural details are complemented by exceptional updates and a functional floor plan. The beautifully renovated country kitchen features granite countertops highlighted by natural, shimmering mica flecks, Viking professional range, Bosch dishwasher, French-door GE Profile refrigerator, generous walk-in pantry. The Shipwright's House offers abundant storage, including multiple closets and charming built-in bench seating with hidden storage. The spacious primary suite includes a renovated shower and period vanity, classic claw-foot tub, walk-in dressing room. Refinished hardwood floors on the main level, and period details create warmth and character. Extensive recent improvements include a metal roof, cedar shingle siding, replacement windows, updated furnaces, whole-house generator and whole-house water filtration system. More than a remarkable residence, this is an opportunity to become the next steward of a piece of Norwell's maritime history.
