414 Main Street
The Moses Cross House is a much-admired property that has been transformed from a simple farmhouse built in 1800 into a 2006 modern property located at 414 Main Street, Hingham. Long considered the Cross Farm, it has been in the same family until recently when The Hastings Companies purchased the property and put its expertise in retaining historic value and maximizing modern amenities into the home. Initially, the house was "jacked up", moved 60 feet back and set on a new foundation.
The original home was only 925 sq. ft; but with the addition and dormers, removal of the old staircase, the footprint grew to over 3200 sq. ft. There is little of the old but enough for the charm to be carried through; such as the fireplace with the "baking oven" intact. The addition of the solarium and an English garden adds to the space and enjoyment of the home. The kitchen and family room is open for today’s active family today gives access to the mahogany deck opening to a lovely, private back yard. Every effort has been made to retain the historic charm of the home. The exterior color; the granite curbing; the charming fence are all reminiscent of historic Hingham properties.
