Listing broker remarks

Set back behind new stone walls along one of Norwell’s scenic country roads, this exceptional residence has been thoughtfully reimagined with an extraordinary level of craftsmanship and attention to detail. A classic New England home at heart, it has been transformed for modern living with beautifully considered interiors, expanded living spaces and a remarkable renovated barn. At the center of the transformation is a stunning new four season sunroom with a soaring hemlock cathedral ceiling. An adjacent mudroom addition creates a seamless connection to the integrated barn, beautifully uniting the home’s original character with its newly imagined spaces. The barn is a destination unto itself, featuring rough hewn beams, a striking stone fireplace, custom cabinetry, quartz surfaces, Sub Zero wine refrigeration and dramatic lighting, creating an incredible setting for everyday living and entertaining. Above, a spacious second story loft offers exceptional flexibility as an artist studio, home gym, office or creative retreat. Throughout the home, Villa Borghese wood flooring is complemented by all new Marvin windows, interior doors, millwork, hardware and lighting, while four zones of new air conditioning provide modern comfort throughout. The sleek renovated kitchen features quartz countertops, beautifully refinished cabinetry and premium appliances, including a Miele induction range and dishwasher. Upstairs, three bedrooms surround a spacious landing and second full bath. A beautifully renovated first floor bath, new primary closet and thoughtfully selected finishes add another layer of polish. Outside, new Kentucky bluegrass lawns, app controlled irrigation, extensive landscaping, bluestone walkways, stone steps and a garden patio enhance the picturesque setting. A new TimberTech deck provides an inviting place to gather, while tranquil nooks tucked throughout the grounds offer quiet places to unwind, including an idyllic spot for a hammock and moments of peaceful relaxation. Timeless New England character meets sophisticated modern living in a property meticulously curated from top to bottom. No expense was spared in its transformation, with exceptional materials, craftsmanship and design choices evident at every turn. Located in the heart of Norwell, celebrated for exceptional schools, this is a rare offering for the most discerning buyer where quality is uncompromising, character has been preserved and every element feels beautifully intentional.— Coldwell Banker Realty - Norwell - Hanover Regional Office
