A revolutionary real estate listing John Hancocks former Boston home is up for grabs

Boston, MALocal News

The Ebenezer Hancock House, historic residence of John Hancock, is now available for purchase after being held by Swartz & Swartz for 50 years. Located at 10 Marshall St. in Boston, the house was built in 1767 and is the last remaining property associated with Hancock in the city. It is listed on the National Registry of Historic Places, reflecting its significance in American history. Realtor Dave Killen aims to find an owner who appreciates the building's heritage and envisions mixed-use possibilities.

The interior retains Late Gregorian details, and the house has hosted various uses over the years, including a shoe store and a museum. The property was assessed at $1. 6 million by Boston, but the real estate company LandVest has not disclosed a listing price. Hancock’s younger brother, Ebenezer, stored funds for the Continental Army in the house, further enhancing its historical relevance. The location near City Hall and two MBTA stations adds to its appeal for potential buyers.
