About this home
DOWNTOWN living at its finest. This remarkable home is tucked away down a long private drive on 1.82 acres, hidden from the street yet only steps from the heart of downtown Hingham Square. Designed with a sense of history and opportunity, the property features gardens & brick patios planned by Frederick Law Olmsted, the famed landscape architect behind Central Park. Roseneath Cottage, originally built in 1730 and thoughtfully expanded over time. Inside, the original portion of the home showcases antique charm with four fireplaces spread across the library, den, living, and dining rooms. Blending seamlessly with these historic details are modern comforts: a spacious eat-in kitchen with an oversized center island, a generous primary suite, three additional bedrooms, and a sun porch overlooking the grounds. This is a rare chance to own a hidden gem in downtown Hingham. A home that perfectly balances antique character, modern living, and a private setting just moments from the Square!
