About this home

CHARMING and SUNNY farmhouse with a classic rocking chair front porch, just a short stroll to downtown Hingham's great shops and restaurants AND the train! 21 Hersey features a recently renovated kitchen with large island and quartz countertops, beverage nook, and sun soaked dining area with lots of room for all to gather— perfect for everyday living or entertaining. Off the kitchen is a cozy den/home office with French doors and built-ins, PLUS a spacious family room with gas fireplace. A nice sized mudroom with cubbies and half bath provide a great "drop zone" before entering the house. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs, including a lovely primary suite with vaulted ceilings, large walk-in closet and a renovated bath. Laundry and a family bath complete the second floor. High ceilings and new and recently refinished hardwood floors throughout! Enjoy the bluestone patio and large fenced backyard. Town sewer and natural gas w/plenty of room to expand!
