712 Main St, Hingham, MA 02043

Set on Hingham’s beautiful Main Street, the "Seth Cushing" home is immersed in American history & boasts the N. E. charm reminiscent of a by-gone era. Built in 1794 the original house including the right wing served as a stagecoach stop, a post office, and a general store but, history does not stop there. Still evident is one of the secret routes used during the 19th-century’s Underground Railroad. It is believed that during its 230-year history, only three families—including the current residents of sixty years—have owned, occupied, and cared for this wonderful home. With its high ceilings & period moldings the discerning buyer is offered many living options within its ten gracious rooms. Recent updates include poured concrete basement floors, newer electrical and heating systems, as well as a power generator. Enjoy the property’s scenic grounds graced w/ magnificent stone walls and seemingly endless pasture-like land that abuts over 100 acres of conservation land. Truly enchanting!
