Overview

Welcome to
Rowley.

Rowley is a small, historic town on the North Shore, tucked between Ipswich and Newburyport with salt marsh and farmland still defining much of its character. Route 1 and Route 133 keep it connected, while the town's compact center — anchored by its historic Common — has kept a genuinely small-town feel that's increasingly rare this close to the coast.

About these numbers

Figures cover single-family homes in Rowley, MA, sourced from MLS data via the Lofty API. Median sale price, price per square foot, and homes sold reflect the trailing 12 months; year-over-year compares that window to the 12 months before it. Median days on market is computed from each sale's list-to-close date, not Lofty's raw "days on site" field, which tracks total listing lifetime rather than time to sale. Ask us for a current, address-specific valuation.
