PROS On a residential side street high above Route 3A, this cheery Cape makes good use of its small space. A bright living room — graced by a bay window with plantation shutters — anchors the first floor, along with a dining room, bedroom, and newer bathroom. A compact but modern kitchen opens out to a new deck. Upstairs are two bedrooms with rustic wood paneling and a small office between. Near shopping and nature, the home is less than a mile to a beach and a dog park and just across the Mill River from Hingham Shipyard, Bare Cove, and the MBTA ferry to Boston. CONS An offer was accepted after the first open house.
