A piece of post-war architectural history has hit the market in Hingham, with a 1960 Campanelli ranch-style home offering four bedrooms and stretches over 2,536 square feet. Listed for just under $1 million, the property at 4 Richard Road stands as a testament to the era's design sensibilities, complete with mid-century touches and a flat corner lot that measures over 21,000 square feet.
A heart of this single-story residence is the spacious living room, boasting a wood-burning fireplace and an adjoining greenhouse-style sunroom that brings a flood of natural light. However, not every aspect is frozen in time; recent updates include a modern 200-amp electrical panel, which fosters peace of mind for potential buyers. Adding to the allure, a brand-new 5-bedroom septic system promises to be installed, ensuring functionality for years to come, according to the listing on Compass.
The unique features of this ranch include slate slab floors in the dining room, contrasting nicely with the high-end vinyl flooring in the living room that mimics the look of hardwood. The original charm extends to the kitchen, flaunting pale blue cabinets and white subway tile, while the dated yet distinctive pink bathroom offers a glimpse into the past, as per Compass.
Nestled across from the McKenna Marsh conservation area, the house boasts impressive curb appeal, further heightened by it's two blacktop driveways. Out back, though in need of repair, sits an in-ground Gunite pool, complementing the potential for leisure and entertainment that the property commands. Not only does the dwelling possess a historical essence, it also caters to practical living, equipped with electric baseboard and oil heating, as well as a heat pump for cooling, as mentioned in the Boston.com article.
