A Rare Offering on Fearing Road in the coveted Derby Academy neighborhood!! A Gracious Center Hall Colonial with 12 rooms, 6 bedrooms, 4 baths features a Grande Wrap Around Porch overlooking a Todd Richardson Design sunken garden, backyard garden patio with stone wall and gazebo recognized in 1994 by the Boston Landscape Architect Society. This distinguished Hingham Landmark 1900's residence was formerly a Captain's house with 1st and 2nd floor center hallways, 3 fireplaces, pocket doors and a back staircase. The master suite with a full bath also includes a dressing room and "little den". 2 additional large bedrooms finish out the 2nd floor with 3 more sizable bedrooms and a bonus room on the 3rd floor. Perfect in-town location, 1 house away from Derby Academy and walking distance to beautiful Hingham Square. Also a short stroll to take a dip at The Bathing Beach with the new bath house and enjoy easy access to the Bandstand, public pier and dock to launch your watercraft. A gem!!
