The historic former home of John Hancock at 10 Marshall St. in Boston is on the real estate market for the first time in years.
The three-story structure, referred to as the Ebenezer Hancock House, retains many of its preserved Georgian details throughout the years, which date back to the 1700s.
In addition to being named to the National Historic Register, the home is also a stop on Boston's Freedom Trail. It is minutes from City Hall, Faneuil Hall, North Station, and the Haymarket and Government Center stops on the T, and it is a short walk across the Greenway from the North End, the Waterfront, and the Boston Harbor commuter ferry.
John Hancock is most famously known for being one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. The Marshall Street home is the last extant property associated with the Founding Father in Boston, according to historical information about the structure.
The house is reportedly the site where Ebenezer Hancock, deputy paymaster of the Continental Army and John Hancock's younger brother, stored 2 million silver crowns loaned by the French government, prior to disbursement to the troops during the Revolutionary War.
According to a Patch of Boston report, while no price is listed, inquiries can be made upon request to the listing agent, David Killen of LandVest, by calling 508-451-0020 or emailing.
