A broad set of Greater Boston property sales dated May 27 ranges from a $208,000 condo in Boxford to a $9.75 million condo at 288 Commonwealth Ave. in Boston, showing how wide the region’s price spread remains across neighborhoods and property types.
When Greater Boston buyers and sellers closed deals on May 27, the check sizes stretched across an astonishing range—from $208,000 for a condo in Boxford to $9.75 million for a condo on Boston’s Commonwealth Avenue.
In Boxford, a 1975-built 804-square-foot condo/apartment at 276 Codman Hill Road #36A sold for $208,000. In Boston, one of the priciest listings was 288 Commonwealth Ave. #3, a 1899-built “Condo row-middle” with 3,750 square feet, seven rooms, three bedrooms, and five baths that sold for $9,750,000.
The spread wasn’t just confined to Boston’s most expensive blocks. Across the area, the listings reflected everything from older, character-heavy homes to newer builds—along with condos priced for everything from first-time buyers to high-end buyers.
In Arlington, for example, 143 Wright St. sold for $1,825,000; in Andover, 31 Porter Road sold for $3,005,000; in Burlington, a 6-A Meadowvale Road Colonial built in 2001 sold for $1,400,000. In Boston’s city center and surrounding districts. luxury condo prices dominated several entries. including multiple Clarendon Street units at 220-224 Clarendon St.—each listed at $9. 545. 000. with different unit sizes ranging from 650 square feet to 3. 025 square feet.
For some buyers, the numbers landed in the high hundreds of thousands. In Brockton, 35 Sylvester St., described as a one-family bungalow/cottage built in 1925, sold for $425,000. In Chelsea, a 1912-built 610-square-foot condo/apartment at 81 Broadway #11 sold for $412,000. In Everett, a series of “Hancock St.” condo entries each list $1,050,000 for #63, #65, #67, #69, #71, #73, and #75.
For others, the deals skewed heavily upward. In Needham, 34 Stratford Road—built in 2022 and listed with 14 rooms, six bedrooms, and eight baths—sold for $4,925,000. In Wellesley, the most expensive entries included 10 Bow St., listed as a one-family Cape Cod built in 1938, which sold for $7,500,000.
The listings also captured how property type and building age can dramatically change the sticker price within the same region. In Brookline, 105 Babcock St. sold for $3,595,000, while 19 Winchester St. #110 sold for $465,000 and was listed as a 1968-built high-rise condo with 612 square feet, three rooms, one bedroom, and one bath.
Even within a single municipality. prices could swing sharply depending on whether the property was a condo. townhouse. multi-family. or a single-family home. In Methuen, 255 Hampshire St. sold for $800,000 as a three-family multi-unit building built in 1850, while the 20-22 Ashland Ave. three-family multi-unit listing sold for $910,000.
A buyer scanning the market might notice the clustering of luxury prices around certain Boston addresses—especially on Commonwealth Avenue and in Seaport-area entries—while many of the lowest entries appeared farther out in the list’s suburbs and smaller condo buildings.
The May 27 Greater Boston sales list ended with one more snapshot of that diversity, including a Wrentham listing at 1001 Main St. #30 Condo/Apt, a 1970-built 762-square-foot condo/apartment that sold for $323,000, and a Woburn listing at 10 26 Somerset Ave. #403 Condo, listed at $383,542.
Together, the entries show a market where pricing can vary by more than two orders of magnitude in a single day—reflecting both the region’s economic spread and the wide range of homes still changing hands across Greater Boston.
