About this home
Set in one of Hingham's most desirable neighborhoods, 13 Whitcomb Avenue presents a rare opportunity to remodel, reimagine, or rebuild on a spacious 0.48-acre lot with beautiful curb appeal. Built in 1939, this classic shingle-style Cape has generous living space, and a newer roof. Hardwood floors, a fireplace, and timeless New England character carry throughout. A versatile setup with a second kitchen provides flexible living space for guests, extended stays, or a home office. The private backyard is the standout: framed by mature, established plantings, it offers a level of seclusion that would take decades to recreate. A tiered patio is ready for your vision and future outdoor dining and entertaining, and a storage shed adds convenience. Buyers can restore and update the existing home, expand it, or design something entirely new on a parcel of a size that rarely comes to market in this setting. It's walkable to Plymouth River Elementary, with easy access to Hingham Square, the harbor, the commuter rail and ferry to Boston, shopping, and Route 3. Don't miss this opportunity to create something truly special!
