About This Home
Attention Contractors/Rehabbers-seize this opportunity to restore a 1940 Bungalow/cape style home nestled in a desirable location of Hingham! Located a short distance from Hingham's quaint downtown w/its many shops, restaurants, waterfront, park & playing fields. The home is conveniently located on the Central St. bus route, making commuting a breeze. The property enjoys a sense of seclusion as it's set back from the street, accessed via a right of way. The generous plot, of almost half an acre offers plenty of space to stretch out & enjoy. Inside, the home is ready for a complete makeover. It's a chance to have it your way, w/the kitchen, walls & ceilings all in need of updating & repairs.The plumbing system & both bathrooms also require attention. It's worth noting that the basement may take in water during certain storms, so some waterproofing work may be necessary. On the bright side, the heating system, hot water heater & roof have all been updated.Town sewer maybe a possibility.
