Hingham vs Duxbury vs Scituate vs Norwell
Hingham, Duxbury, Scituate, and Norwell are four South Shore towns I cover, and each one has a median single-family sale price of $1,100,000 or more so far this year. From January 1 to November 6, 2026, that median was $1,540,000 in Hingham, $1,250,000 in Duxbury, $1,125,000 in Scituate, and $1,100,000 in Norwell (Source: MLS PIN, Town Metrics, pulled 11/6/2026). A town median is the middle sale, not the price of your house. If you are selling, I will walk your home and price it from sales that actually match it.

I look at every house the way a builder would. I keep my listings to 6 to 8 at a time, so you work with me.
The numbers, side by side
All figures below are single-family homes, January 1 to November 6, 2026, from MLS PIN, unless I say they are a one-day count on November 6, 2026.
| Hingham | Duxbury | Scituate | Norwell | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Median sale price | $1,540,000 | $1,250,000 | $1,125,000 | $1,100,000 |
| Closed sales | 184 | 145 | 157 | 99 |
| Median days on market | 20 | 21 | 20 | 21 |
| Sale vs original list, median | 100.0% | 99.6% | 100.0% | 100.0% |
| Sale vs final list, median | 100.0% | 100.0% | 100.0% | 100.0% |
| Homes for sale on 11/6/2026 | 46 | 24 | 27 | 22 |
| Months of supply on 11/6/2026 | 2.6 | 1.8 | 1.8 | 2.4 |
| Median list price on 11/6/2026 | $1,659,000 | $2,140,000 | $1,395,000 | $1,497,500 |
| Median price per sq ft | $577 | $489 | $511 | $427 |
Final list is the last asking price. Original list is the first one. Those two can differ if a price was cut. I use medians here, not averages.
(Source: MLS PIN, Town Metrics, YTD Jan 1 to Nov 6, 2026, pulled 11/6/2026. Inventory, months of supply, and median list price are as of November 6, 2026, not a year-to-date total.)
What changed from last year
Compared with the same January 1 to November 6 stretch in 2025 (Source: MLS PIN, Town Metrics, pulled 11/6/2026):
In Hingham, the median single-family sale price was up 11.3%. Closed sales were down 7.1%. Homes sold a little faster, with median days on market down 4.8%.
In Duxbury, the median sale price was up 6.7%. Closed sales were up 6.6%. Median days on market were even with last year.
In Scituate, the median sale price was down 2.2%. Closed sales were up 8.3%. Median days on market were even with last year.
In Norwell, the median sale price was down 6.4%. Closed sales were down 4.8%. Median days on market were up 10.5%, to 21 days.
None of those changes sets a price for a single house. They tell you how the middle of each town moved, not what your home should list for.
What the current listings tell you
On November 6, 2026, Duxbury had 24 single-family homes for sale, or 1.8 months of supply, and Scituate had 27 homes, also 1.8 months. Hingham had 46 homes, or 2.6 months. Norwell had 22 homes, or 2.4 months.
The median list price of the homes that were for sale on that day is not always close to the median sale price for the year. In Duxbury, the median list price on November 6, 2026 was $2,140,000, while the year-to-date median sale was $1,250,000. That can happen when the mix of homes on the market is different from the mix that already sold. I would not use today’s median list as a shortcut for your price.
Condos, in brief
This page leads with single-family homes because that is the larger sample in all four towns. Condo medians, from January 1 to November 6, 2026, were $747,000 in Hingham (51 sales), $955,000 in Scituate (33 sales), and $585,000 in Duxbury (23 sales) (Source: MLS PIN, Town Metrics, pulled 11/6/2026). I am not headlining Norwell condo figures here, because that sample is small and the year-over-year change is flagged as low-sample in the sheet. If you have a condo, I will pull condo sales only, not mix them with houses.
What this means if you are selling
A median is a starting point, not your net. I walk the house, I look at recent sales of similar homes, and I tell you what I think the condition will do to the price. If you want that walk, call or text 774-619-7846, or book a 15-minute call.
You can also see how many homes in these towns, and in other towns I cover, have sold for $1 million and up on my homes sold for $1 million and up page.
