Ready for South Shore summer

- By Miriam Schwartz

If you’re lucky enough to be the new owner of the sprawling contempora­ry Colonial estate at 4 Brewer Way in Hingham, be prepared to become the prized summer destinatio­n for your extended family, your friends, their friends and the kids’ baseball team. Don’t worry, the close-to10,000-square-foot home and nearly one-acre lot can handle it — and then some.

The eye-popping property sits across from the exclusive South Shore Country Club where it’s surrounded by mature trees and crisp landscapin­g — accessible to the rest of the world while feeling like you’re in a world of your own.

Luxuriousl­y detailed from top to bottom, the estate brings the drama with a two-story foyer and elegant staircase, with formal living and dining rooms opening on either side. Thanks to wide doorways, windows galore and a thoughtful floor plan, the traditiona­l layout feels open without giving up the intimacy of intentiona­l, dedicated rooms.

Perhaps the best one-twothree punch of the home — and it’s tough to pick — is the stretch of kitchen, sunroom and family room. Starting with the gourmet kitchen, the sun-drenched space boasts a brick fireplace and sunny dining nook overlookin­g the yard. From there, the sunroom, with its cathedral ceiling, is a glass-ensconced little slice of heaven, adjoining the family room with builtins and a fireplace.

In addition to five bedrooms with en-suite baths on the second floor, which includes an oversized primary suite with its own terrace, the home enjoys a lower level that’s custommade for fun. Here, the new owners will love the sauna, home gym and tons of room for a home theater, office space and more.

We said outdoor entertaini­ng and we mean it. The estate comes with a resortlike saltwater pool, outdoor jacuzzi, and extensive decking throughout.

Open house hours are available by appointmen­t only from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday.
