4 bedroom house for sale

Overview

Introducing the William H. Sherburn House, a Duxbury landmark with a unique history and exceptional warmth! The home sits very close to schools, town, beach, and shops, in a very convenient and desirable part of town. Wild turkeys roam the 2.5 rolling, pastoral acres as chickens do their business on site - much as was likely the case a couple hundred years ago! The house itself is truly special, offering 4 working fireplaces - including one in the three season room! Wide pine floors, French door hardware, and beautiful wainscoting characterize much of the home. The large, cathedral living room with upper balcony is the site of the original 1840 home, which was later expanded. An historical document reveals that this may have in fact been the first and possibly only date-boarded Duxbury home owned pre civil war by a free man of color. It's special blend of setting, character, charm and peace truly sets this home apart. Will you be the next proud owner? Please come for a visit!
