A sun-filled, tiled all-season room overlooks the grounds, while gracious living and dining rooms and a completely renovated powder room round out the first floor.

French doors open to a light-filled atrium/library with custom bookshelves, creating an inviting retreat. Three additional bedrooms and an updated full bath complete the second floor.

Outside, an expansive patio, outdoor shower, mature trees, lush landscaping and new landscape lighting create a spectacular setting that feels remarkably private yet connected to everything Hingham Center has to offer. New front and garage doors, a two-car garage and ample parking complete this truly turnkey home.

Estimates — not financial advice
These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
