Hingham Harbor Retreat ~ Sunsets ~ Family Gatherings ~ Trails at World’s End

Cozy Coastal Retreat on Hingham Harbor – Perfect for Fall & Winter Getaways!

Escape to our spacious 5-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home overlooking beautiful Hingham Harbor in the serene World’s End neighborhood. With 3,200 sq. ft. of living space, this expanded New England cape is ideal for families and groups, whether you’re staying for a long weekend or a month.

Gather in the dining room that seats up to 14, or step out onto the large deck to take in the tranquil harbor views. As the seasons turn, enjoy crisp coastal walks just steps away at World’s End, a 251-acre sanctuary with sweeping views of the Boston skyline. Afterward, return to the warmth of home—relax by one of the two indoor fireplaces or cozy up around the outdoor fireplace next to the inviting hot tub.

Neighborhood

Hingham is a charming New England town with a classic, old-fashioned feel. Just a mile away, the town center offers boutique shops and restaurants. A few miles further, the Hingham Shipyard features waterfront dining, shopping, and a movie theater, while Derby Street Shops provides a full outdoor mall experience. For beach lovers, the sandy shores of Hull’s Nantasket Beach are just a short drive away—perfect for summer swims or peaceful year-round walks.

Getting Around

Our home is conveniently located less than a mile from the Nantasket Junction Commuter Rail stop and only 2.5 miles from the Commuter Boat to Boston—perfect for holiday shopping, winter events, or quick day trips into the city.

Whether you’re looking for a cozy seasonal retreat, a family gathering spot, or a home base to explore Boston and the South Shore, our harbor-view home offers the perfect setting year-round.

We loved the location of the home in Hingham. The proximity to World’s End was fabulous for daily jogs, walks and even some fishing for our grandsons. The home is large and has a beautiful view. It was perfect for our extended family with a large deck and dining room. It’s close to the ferry for trips to Boston. We will return again for future family visits.

This house was perfect for our family stay! We had plenty of space for grandparents, couples, and children. The long dining table was great for meals and the kitchen was very well stocked. The location was convenient next to World’s End and a close drive to beaches.

Birthday, Graduation, Extravaganza!!

I cannot say enough positive things about Richard and this property. It is a hidden gem for a family vacation in Massachusetts. Close to Boston for a baseball game, Plymouth, hike, kayak, or just never leave and spend time with family enjoying the amazing views. The number one response of all my guests (including my dogs) was how relaxed they felt and how amazing the house was to allow us to make such special memories. My parents are in their late 70’s with some mobility issues. The first floor allowed them to be comfortable with the ability to enjoy the deck, the views, and their room without worrying about stairs. There are 2 steps up to the main living room. This does not limit access but we did make sure to accommodate for ease. Don’t let that deter you because everything about this house is worth the time and money. Instead of visiting any of the great local restaurants we chose to cook and enjoy amazing family time. This was only possible because of the beautiful dining room, great deck and grill, amazing views. I truly cannot say enough positive about this house, but the family we rented from. Thank you – and congratulations on your summer of graduations too!! My family is forever grateful of the special memories you helped us create!!!

Beautiful Home!

We gathered from around the Country and this home exceeded our expectations! Plenty of space to gather together but space to be alone when needed. Everyone was happy with bed comfort and bedding. Plenty of supplies for group meal prep. Nantasket Beach and Hingham ferry both less then 15 mins. away. Worlds End is practically in the backyard. Really enjoyed this property and would book again!

Wonderful house in Hingham

We loved our trip to Massachusetts and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Hingham. The house was fantastic and well maintained. The rooms sizes are ample so lots of room for all of us to spread out. The house is on an amazing lot with a great view. It's a very short walk to World's End (nature preserve) and we visited there more than once. It's also easy to get to other locations such as Boston and Plymouth. Communication with the owners and property manager were super easy. My family said this was one of our best vacations. I would definitely stay in this house again. Can't say enough nice things about it!

Great Property; Great Location

House is spacious and perfect for a larger family to spread out. Outdoor space is perfect for summer barbecues. Location is excellent for both local activities (beaches, shops restaurants, parks) as well as taking a jaunt into Boston (ferry to Boston is an 8 min drive from house and is a scenic 30 min cruise through the harbor to land downtown). Would stay again.

Hingham holiday

We really enjoyed our stay in Hingham. The location is terrific. Richard is extremely personable and helpful. Most of the house is lovely. Pots, pans, cutlery, glasses, toaster, towels and bedding all provided. Beds comfortable. Unfortunately the basement has some moisture issues so we only used it for the laundry room. Also the air conditioning and window unit in the upstairs king bedroom is iffy making it not so comfortable in summer weather. The garden was very nice for the children to play in while we sat and chatted on the deck. Easy to access Boston by ferry. Walking to The Worlds End was beautiful. We had a lovely trip….

Graduation stay

Came up with our kids and grandkids for our youngest’s graduation. There were 11 of us, we stayed 5 days. House was beautiful. Plenty of space, including two bedrooms for our daughters who have young children. Beds were comfortable - I slept so well. Back deck and yard are fantastic. The kitchen was well equipped. We cook at home a lot (one reason we rent BNBs) and this house had everything we needed. And plenty of dishes. Owner was very responsive and accommodating. Hot tub wasn’t working (the only reason I rated a four on accuracy of listing), but the part had already been ordered, I’m sure it’s been fixed by now.

Idyllic location, spacious home, views of the bay

This is the third time my extended family has stayed in this beautiful home. There is room for us all (10 people) at the dining room table, a comfy room to watch movies, hang out, talk, and an outside table for a star lit meal. We loved cooking together in the kitchen. The hot tub was an added plus. The yard is huge with one end looking out over the bay. Every morning our walks were in Worlds End, a unique conservation land a short walk from the house. The house was immaculate and both Richard and Dennis responded immediately if we needed anything. We are already talking about reserving for summer of 2023. You will love your stay here.

Enjoyed our stay

The rental was very nice and with a good location. Neighborhood is very quite and friendly. House had all you needed and we would likely stay again. Need to disclose a few things - the beds are creaky, so much so you are afraid to move in the middle of the night. We highly recommend the owners invest in beds given the cost of the rental. Same for doors, both the front and the back doors need maintenance. We had to keep locking everyone out of the front door and the back would not lock. The hot tub was unusable, we tested the water which needed alot of chemicals but none were available. You also have to supply your own wood. The fridge needs the filters replaced, the ice was a little gross so we bought some. Proximity to the beach is awesome and access to Worlds End is very convenient.

Great get away

we loved the house and property, other than the cadence of a couple of the stair cases (caused a few trips and a fall also it would be nice to have a hand rail at the top of the basement stairs). We would definitely come back and would recommend it to others. We loved the views and the spaciousness of your home. It was an incredible place to celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary.
