Property description
If you are looking for a 2.5 acre sanctuary with a beautiful private back lawn, a rolling meadow, an amazing tree house, and a two stall barn, this is the home for you. The yard and views from every window overlooking the retreat lot are amazing, yet you are only a mile to Hingham Centre and short walk to the library and East Elementary School. Step inside to discover authentic architectural design and the quality of craftsmanship that has withstood the test of time. There are high ceilings, built-ins, beautiful "King Pine" wood paneling and flooring, 7 fireplaces, 6 bedrooms, and a walk up 3rd floor suite. Truly the best of old and new. There is a kitchen that will appeal to both the traditionalist and the 21st century buyer with plenty of storage and up to date stainless appliances. The kitchen opens to a sun-drenched, expansive 23 ft. family room with vaulted ceilings. Formal dining room, living room, sitting room, 4 updated baths, 1st floor laundry. Truly a house that must be seen.
