North Swansea, located between the Taunton River waterfront and the Somerset town line, is a residential and coastal Swansea neighborhood with salt-marsh edges and winding back roads. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Swansea Mall area at Grand Army of the Republic Highway (US-6) and Swansea Mall Drive, where big-box storefronts, casual eateries, and steady traffic set a commercial counterpoint to quieter side streets. Nearby, the Swansea Mall serves as a long-running retail anchor, while the Swansea Public Library offers a civic pause for reading rooms and community programming. Low-slung ranches and Cape-style homes mix with newer subdivisions, often framed by stone walls and pockets of woods. River views and boat ramps pull daily life toward the water, especially near the Taunton River shoreline. The pace shifts quickly from shopping corridors to marshy overlooks and neighborhood lanes.

Wonderful,well cared for, family home. MOVE IN CONDITION, no kidding! E-I-K was redone 3 yrs. ago,SS appliances to remain. Lovely hardwood floors, partially finished basement, great for family room with additional GLA of 416 not included in above GLA. 4th room can be a bedroom, or formal DR, or large home office. Walk in cedar closet in basement. Beautiful back yard, private deck. A drive by will not do this house justice, must see inside to realize spacious layout. New septic to be installed.
