Bridgewater home prices span $20,000 to $850,000 in late July sales

BRIDGEWATER -- Five properties sold with recorded prices in Bridgewater between July 10 and Aug. 8, with sale prices ranging from $20,000 to $850,000 and a median of $630,000. Five additional transfers recorded in the same period carried only nominal consideration and are not counted as market sales.

MARKET OVERVIEW The Plymouth County Registry of Deeds recorded 10 property transfers in Bridgewater during the period, but only five carried a disclosed sale price; the other five were nominal-consideration transfers, often associated with family or trust arrangements. Among the five priced sales, prices ranged from $20,000 to $850,000, with a median of $630,000. With just five priced transactions, the raw count suggests a quiet period for arm's-length sales in town, though the data cannot support broader comparisons.

TOP SALES 159 Crescent St. sold for $850,000 on July 13. Thomas N. Howard Jr. and Linda Howard were the sellers; Christopher A. Barnes and Kimberly A. Barnes were the buyers. 30 Fieldcrest Dr. sold for $725,000 on July 16. Alyssa Marie Peter (also recorded as Alyssa Marie Hemm) was the seller; Nathaniel Almeida and Erin Dalton were the buyers. 50 Kathy Cir. sold for $630,000 on July 13. David M.

Adrienne Mollor and the estate of Senja Kravitz were the sellers; Shane Veronesi was the buyer.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN No street in the dataset recorded more than one priced sale, so transactions are grouped by price tier. Under $500,000: 630 S. Main St. ($301,000) and 0 Vernon St. ($20,000). Between $500,000 and $1 million: 50 Kathy Cir. ($630,000), 30 Fieldcrest Dr. ($725,000) and 159 Crescent St. ($850,000). No sale in the period exceeded $1 million.

MARKET NOTES Half of the 10 recorded transfers in this period, five of 10, carried only nominal consideration rather than a market price, a notably high share relative to priced sales. Several of those nominal transfers show a shared surname or trustee designation between grantor and grantee, consistent with within-family or trust-related transfers: 65 Wildwood Pl. (Ledin to Ledin, as trustees), 215 Bridge St. (Jackle to Jackle), 25 Clarence Ave. (Ramezany to Ramezany and Ortega) and 0 Comfort St. (Dempsey to Dempsey, as trustees). One nominal transfer, involving a Bridgewater property listed without a street address, moved from a trust and an individual trustee to buyers with a different surname, Sousa. Bed, bath and square-footage figures were not available in the deed data for any property, so no price-per-square-foot comparisons can be made. The 630 S. Main St. sale involved a bank trustee as seller, consistent with a foreclosure-related transfer, though the deed data does not specify further detail.
