Hanover home prices hold near $1.3 million median in late June sales

HANOVER -- Eight residential property transfers were recorded in Hanover between June 26 and July 25, with the priciest sale reaching $1.75 million. Seven of the eight transactions carried a sale price in the deed data, while one was a nominal-consideration transfer rather than a market sale.

MARKET OVERVIEW Seven sales with recorded prices ranged from $700,000 to $1,750,000, with a median sale price of $1,300,000. An eighth transfer, at 250 Plain St., was recorded for nominal consideration and is not included in price calculations. With seven priced sales recorded in a roughly four-week window, the period shows a steady level of transaction activity based on the raw count, though the data does not permit comparison to prior periods or broader trends.

TOP SALES The top sale was 47 Stone Meadow Lane, which sold for $1,750,000 on June 26. Sellers Justin M. Hamilton and Leah S. Hamilton transferred the property to buyers Christopher Brown and Caitlin Fahey. Bed, bath and square footage figures were not available.

The second-highest sale was 7 Jutila Farm Path, which sold for $1,625,000 on June 30. The sale involved seller Robert F. Fredette Jr., acting as trustee of the Robert F. Fredette Jr. Living Trust, and buyers Ian Concannon and Bailey Concannon.

147 Curtis Mill Lane sold for $1,406,250 on June 29. Sellers Nathan M. Butler and Michelle R. Merrill, both acting as trustees, transferred the property to buyers Michael Sahagian and Steven W. Sahagian.

67 Henderson Lane sold for $1,300,000 on June 30. Sellers Brian W. Shaw and Dianna Shaw, both acting as trustees, sold to buyers Kate Vargo and Peter Vargo.

39 Dwelley Avenue sold for $1,090,000 on June 26. Seller Jason F. Currie transferred the property to buyers Colin Brady and Jacqueline Elizabeth Brady.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN No street recorded more than one sale during the period, so transactions are grouped by price tier. Two sales topped $1.5 million: 47 Stone Meadow Lane at $1,750,000 and 7 Jutila Farm Path at $1,625,000. Three sales fell between $1 million and $1.5 million: 147 Curtis Mill Lane at $1,406,250, 67 Henderson Lane at $1,300,000, and 39 Dwelley Avenue at $1,090,000. Two sales were under $1 million: 392 Cedar Street at $851,000 and 276 Woodland Drive at $700,000.

MARKET NOTES Beds, baths and square footage were not available in the deed data for any of the eight properties, so no price-per-square-foot comparisons can be made. Four of the seven priced sales, at Jutila Farm Path, Henderson Lane, Curtis Mill Lane and Cedar Street, involved sellers acting as trustees of a trust, though the data does not indicate whether these were family-related transfers beyond what trust names show. One transfer, at 250 Plain St., moved from Angela M. Conway individually to Angela M. Conway and Lawrence G. Wentworth, both listed as trustees, for nominal consideration; the shared name suggests Conway retained an interest through the trust structure, though the deed data does not specify further details. That transfer is not counted among the period's market sales.
