Marketing description
The Ebenezer Hancock House is back on the market, and ready to celebrate.
Historic Opportunity in Boston
LandVest Commercial is pleased to offer this singular opportunity, located on Boston’s iconic Freedom Trail. Once owned by John Hancock, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, 10 Marshall St remains the last extant property associated with the Founding Father in Boston. Later occupied by Ebenezer Hancock, Deputy Paymaster of the Continental Army, and John Hancock’s younger brother, the property is a Boston Landmark and resides on the National Register of Historic Places for it’s role as a military rendezvous during the Revolutionary War.
Celebrating America’s 250th Birthday
As we approach the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution and the signing of the Declaration of Independence, 10 Marshall St presents a unique stewardship acquisition opportunity. The building was owned by Hancock during the events of the Liberty Affair, The Boston Tea Party, and when the cries of No Taxation without Representation rang from Boston Harbor to the Houses of Parliament. The building is also reportedly where 2 million silver crowns, a loan by the French King Louis XVI and negotiated by Benjamin Franklin, was stored prior to a timely disbursement to the Continental Army troops. 10 Marshall St stands today, on the Freedom Trail, as a tangible connection to the events that shaped our country during the Revolutionary War era.
A Distinctive Owner Occupied Acquisition
The building is freestanding, consists of approximately 15 rooms with 12 private offices, and much of the Georgian interior architectural detail has been preserved. An oversized brick hearth with beehive oven, wide plank flooring, original raised panel work and joinery (as mentioned in the Landmark Commissions Report), splayed reveal windows and hand hewn trusses offer an authentic architectural and historical experience. As a beloved Boston Landmark, this location confers upon an owner the additional recognition that they have become a steward of Boston’s rich colonial history.
Blackstone Block Historic District Location
The Ebenezer Hancock House is located minutes from City Hall, Faneuil Hall, and the North Station and Haymarket MBTA stations, in the heart of the Blackstone Block Historic Overlay District. A short walk away are the world class dining experiences of the North End, and access to the Boston Waterfront, water taxi, and commuter ferry services. The weekends offer all of the cultural, maritime, and sporting events of Downtown Boston.
