Listing broker remarks

Built in 1869 by master shipbuilder Thomas Barstow & tucked back off the road on .75 private acres in historic Four Corners, The Barstow House is a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Hanover history. Hidden behind mature trees & approached a long circular driveway, this remarkable property feels worlds away from the everyday. Inside, soaring ceilings, original wide pine floors, & period details blend seamlessly with thoughtful updates. Enjoy peace of mind with a newer roof (2018), gas boiler (2024), and whole house water filtration system (2026). Features include 4-5 bedrooms, 2.5 updated baths, a spacious eat-in kitchen, formal dining room, 1st floor bed/bath, grand living room, and primary with good morning staircase. Outside, enjoy storybook grounds, a welcoming farmer's porch, detached barn/garage, chicken coop, charming garden, and mahogany deck with fire pit and hot tub, perfect for entertaining. Rich in history and utterly unforgettable, this is a home unlike any other.— Coldwell Banker Realty - Norwell - Hanover Regional Office
