About Rowley

Rowley is a quiet, historic community on Massachusetts’ North Shore, tucked about thirty miles north of Boston. Life here centers around a classic New England village green and a scenic Main Street lined with colonial homes, local shops, and centuries of history. It offers a relaxed, small-town atmosphere where neighbors know each other and the pace slows down just enough to enjoy the coastal surroundings.

Families appreciate the tight-knit school community, with younger kids attending Pine Grove School before heading to the Triton Regional district for middle and high school. Outdoor lovers have easy access to hiking in Georgetown-Rowley State Forest and kayaking along the salt marshes near the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge. With Route 1, Route 1A, and an MBTA commuter rail station right in town, heading into Boston or exploring neighboring spots like Newburyport and Ipswich is quick and simple.
