Welcome home to 48 Whiton Avenue, a stately and sophisticated coastal Hingham retreat listed by Darleen Lannon.
Perched above the glistening waters of Hingham Harbor on one of Crow Point’s most coveted streets, this extraordinary New England estate is a rare offering of timeless coastal elegance, architectural beauty, and resort-style living. With sweeping harbor views and impeccably curated grounds, the property evokes the charm of a grand seaside retreat while offering every modern luxury for today’s most discerning buyer.
A sweeping wraparound porch graciously spans the front of the home, capturing harbor breezes and transporting you to a more elegant era — a signature architectural detail that sets the tone for the warmth, sophistication, and understated luxury found throughout.
Inside, the first floor showcases exquisite craftsmanship at every turn, featuring custom millwork, reclaimed hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and beautifully scaled living spaces designed for both intimate gatherings and exceptional entertaining. The dramatic great room stuns with soaring ceilings and a magnificent stone fireplace, seamlessly flowing into a chef’s kitchen appointed with custom cabinetry, professional-grade appliances, and an expansive open-concept design ideal for coastal living and effortless entertaining.
The formal dining room is rich with character and refinement, highlighted by original built-ins, a dream-worthy butler’s pantry, wet bar, and stunning stained glass windows that cast natural light throughout the space. The formal living room offers another elegant fireplace and a striking wall of windows perfectly framing the harbor beyond. A private office, handsome study, and beautifully designed mudroom complete the main level with both sophistication and functionality.
The second floor offers five spacious bedrooms and three beautifully appointed full baths, with many of the rooms enjoying beautiful views of Hingham Harbor — creating exceptional comfort, privacy, and a serene coastal backdrop for family and guests alike.
Occupying the third floor, the luxurious primary suite serves as a private sanctuary suspended above the harbor. Panoramic water views create a breathtaking backdrop, while the spa-inspired bath and expansive walk-in dressing room deliver a level of refinement reminiscent of a boutique coastal retreat.
The sun-filled walk-out lower level is equally impressive — thoughtfully designed for both entertaining and everyday living. Anchored by a gracious stone fireplace, the space offers seamless indoor-outdoor flow along with abundant storage, making it the perfect media room, game room, fitness space, or gathering area throughout every season.
Outside, the grounds have been masterfully designed for resort-style coastal living. A spectacular stone patio overlooks the property’s beautifully landscaped surroundings, while the sparkling in-ground pool, built-in grilling area, and exceptional pool house create an atmosphere worthy of a private seaside resort. Complete with its own kitchen, half bath, and dramatic indoor-outdoor fireplace, the pool house offers an extraordinary extension of the home for summer entertaining and unforgettable evenings under the stars.
Perfectly positioned within Crow Point — near Hingham Harbor, the newly built Foster Elementary School, Hingham Center, the commuter ferry to Boston, and the South Shore’s most celebrated dining and shopping destinations — this is coastal luxury living at its absolute finest.
