Nestled in Norwell’s idyllic President’s Park neighborhood, 27 John Adams Drive offers a fabulous opportunity to get into one of the South Shore’s most coveted towns. Meticulously maintained and beautifully updated, this charming ranch is truly move-in ready. The bright and inviting living room features hardwood floors, built-ins, shiplap detail, and a wood-burning fireplace, while the lovely eat-in kitchen offers granite countertops, a generous island, and direct access to the large composite deck—perfect for al fresco dining. On the other side of the home, you’ll find three good-sized bedrooms and an updated bath with tiled tub/shower. Need more space? The full basement offers high ceilings and an impressive amount of natural light, creating fantastic potential for additional finished living space down the road. Outside, the flat, fully fenced backyard is truly enormous, with plenty of room for pets, play, gardening, entertaining—or simply enjoying the outdoors. Gas heat, central AC, and a new whole-house water filtration system add to the home’s comfort and convenience. And then there’s the neighborhood. With its quiet streets, welcoming atmosphere, and convenient location close to everything Norwell has to offer, President’s Park has the kind of true neighborhood feel that’s becoming harder and harder to find. Less than a mile from Cole School and minutes from Route 3, shopping, dining, and more, the location offers an ideal combination of neighborhood charm and convenience.

ADU Potential

Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 502 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,003 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 22,215 sq ft.

Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.
