Pine Island Road sale tops $1.8 million as five deals reach registry

MATTAPOISETT -- Ten property transfers recorded at the Plymouth County Registry of Deeds between July 10 and Aug. 8 included a $1,885,541 sale on Pine Island Road, the highest-priced transaction of the period, alongside five transfers made for nominal consideration that moved properties into family trusts rather than onto the open market.

MARKET OVERVIEW Of the 10 recorded transfers, five carried a market sale price and five were nominal-consideration transfers, each under $10,000, that are not counted toward price figures. The five market sales ranged from $585,000 to $1,885,541, with a median sale price of $985,000. Five sales over a four-week window is a modest count on its own; the data available does not establish whether that represents an active or quiet period beyond that raw total.

TOP SALES The top sale was 24 Pine Island Road, which sold for $1,885,541. Seller Donald Mark Thea transferred the property to buyers Jeremy J. Collier and Rebecca A. Maki on July 13.

10 Shagbark Circle sold for $1,265,000 on July 10. Sellers Arun B. Rajan and Sangeeta Rajan transferred the property to buyers Ka Ming Cheng and Sum Yee Diana Tsang.

2 Winter Hill Road sold for $985,000 on July 14. Sellers Mackenzie Gianna Sylvia and Daniel Joseph Sylvia transferred the property to buyers Ryan P. Murphy and Erica L. Murphy.

A Mattapoisett property sold for $925,000 on July 28. Sellers Charlotte Oliveira and Charlotte Oliveira, as trustee, transferred the property to buyers Marcus Baptiste and Taunya Baptiste.

1 Barlow Lane sold for $585,000 on July 24. Sellers Ryan Patrick Murphy and Erica Murphy transferred the property to buyer Laurel J. Carlson.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN No two priced sales shared a street name during the period, so sales break down by price tier instead. In the $500,000-to-$1 million range: 1 Barlow Lane at $585,000, the Mattapoisett sale at $925,000, and 2 Winter Hill Road at $985,000, three sales total. Above $1 million: 10 Shagbark Circle at $1,265,000 and 24 Pine Island Road at $1,885,541, two sales total. No sales in this dataset fell under $500,000.

MARKET NOTES Half of the recorded transfers, five of 10, were nominal-consideration transactions rather than market sales. Deed records show each of these moved property into a trust or to a family member with the same surname: 19 Tinkham Lane (Gardner and Dardano, into trust for themselves), 118 Aucoot Road (Allen to Allen), 27 Randall Road (Schard into the Robert B. Schard Revocable Trust), 3 Crooks Way (Correia into the Correia Family Irrevocable Trust), and 7 Pinewood Way (Choquette, into trust for themselves). These are not counted in the price range or median above.

One notable pattern among the market sales: Ryan P. Murphy and Erica Murphy appear on both sides of the ledger. They sold 1 Barlow Lane for $585,000 on July 24, ten days after buying 2 Winter Hill Road for $985,000 on July 14, both recorded in the same reporting period.

No bedroom, bathroom or square-footage data is available from deed records for any of the properties listed, so no price-per-square-foot comparisons can be made, and property type (single-family, condominium or multi-family) cannot be determined from the data provided.
