Rowley

Rowley, Massachusetts offers a rare mix of rural atmosphere and coastal proximity that’s hard to replicate. Tucked between Newburyport and Ipswich, the town feels grounded in its agricultural roots, with open fields, winding backroads, and working farms still shaping the landscape. The real estate here is just as varied—historic capes and colonials, custom builds on larger lots, and homes with direct access to trails or tidal marshes. Route 1 cuts through town for easy north-south access, while the commuter rail stop adds convenience without disrupting the quiet pace. Rowley is the kind of place where you can still hear wildlife at night, yet be at a local brewery, beach, or downtown shop in under 15 minutes.
