West Bridgewater Sale Prices Cluster Tightly Between $445 And $722

WEST BRIDGEWATER -- Plymouth County Registry of Deeds records show 12 property transfers in West Bridgewater between July 17 and Aug. 15, with disclosed sale prices ranging from $445 to $722 and a median of $589. Five of the 12 transfers listed no sale price, and several involved transfers between family members or into trusts.

MARKET OVERVIEW The registry recorded 12 total transfers during the period. Among the seven sales with a disclosed price, the range ran from $445 to $722, with a median of $589. The remaining five transfers, roughly 42% of the total, listed no consideration amount, which is common for deed records and does not necessarily reflect an unsold or below-market transaction. Based on raw count alone, the period shows steady activity, with transfers recorded in nearly every week of the four-week window.

3 Marisa Dr. sold Aug. 6 for $635. The seller was Megan Connolly Fitzgerald; the buyers were Kristen E. Kelly and Christopher Josie.

21 Shaw Ave. sold Aug. 5 for $615. The seller was Peter Gureckis, trustee; the buyers were Leo Kiley, trustee, and Kristy Shipulski, trustee.

121 Prospect St. sold July 27 for $589, matching the period's median. The sellers were Michael S. Winkler and Alexandra I. Tara; the buyers were Joshua R. Rankin and Kara H. Koska.

208 Matfield St. sold July 21 for $565. The sellers were John R. Eckstrom and the estate of Meredith A. Eckstrom; the buyer was Giovanni S. Perrone.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN No street in the dataset recorded more than one transfer during the period; the 12 transactions were spread across 12 different streets, including Crescent Street, River Street, Marisa Drive, Shaw Avenue, Jeffrey Drive, Grant Street, West Street, Prospect Street, Hartshorn Street, Matfield Street, West Center Street and South Street. Grouped by price among the seven disclosed sales: two fell under $550 (272 River St. at $445 and 20 West St. at $540); four fell between $550 and $650 (208 Matfield St. at $565, 121 Prospect St. at $589, 21 Shaw Ave. at $615, and 3 Marisa Dr. at $635); and one exceeded $650 (260 Crescent St. at $722).

MARKET NOTES Five of the 12 recorded transfers, at 272 River St., 21 Grant St., 18 Hartshorn St., 301 W. Center St. and 195 South St., involved a grantor and grantee sharing a last name or a transfer into a trust held by the same individual, a pattern consistent with family or estate-planning transfers rather than open-market sales. None of these five listed a disclosed price. Bedroom, bathroom and square-footage figures are not available from deed records and are omitted from this report.
