The Ebenezer Hancock House, a rare 1767 Georgian home on Boston’s Freedom Trail, goes up for sale after 50 year. Its asking price is being kept secret from public.
A Revolutionary War-era home tied to a Founding Father is for sale in historic downtown but one detail remains under wraps.
The property, called the Ebenezer Hancock House, was built in 1767. The building is located at 10 Marshall Street in the city’s tourist-heavy Blackstone Block Historic District.
The house sits right on Boston’s Freedom Trail and boasts proximity to Faneuil Hall, Haymarket and North Station. It’s also a short walk from the North End, a bustling tourist hotspot.
Luxury real estate company LandVest says the building is the last surviving Boston property tied to John Hancock. The Founding Father owned the house before transferring the title to his brother Ebenezer — for whom the house is now named.
The three-story house still maintains Georgian-era interior details, although it was expanded in the 1970s. It is now in use as a law office.
