Buckland Home Prices Range From $157,000 to $489,250 as Summer Transfer Season Opens

BUCKLAND -- Ten property transfers were recorded in Buckland at the Franklin County Registry of Deeds between June 12 and July 11, 2026, though only four carried disclosed consideration amounts, constraining a full reading of local market conditions.

MARKET OVERVIEW The 10 recorded deeds represent a modest level of activity consistent with a small rural community. Of the total, four transactions included a disclosed sale price, ranging from $157,000 to $489,250, with a median of $289,500 among those four. The remaining six transfers listed no consideration, which is common in deed data and may reflect non-arm's-length conveyances, estate or trust transfers, mortgage recordings, or government-entity transactions. The limited disclosure rate means the median and range should be interpreted cautiously as a partial picture of the market rather than a comprehensive benchmark.

TOP SALES The highest consideration recorded in the period was $489,250 at 10 Gardner Falls Road, where Ralph Chery and Jessica Yanick Chery are listed as grantors. The grantees — United Wholesale Mortgage LLC and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. — are entities associated with mortgage lending rather than conventional property ownership; readers seeking the document type should consult the registry directly, as the instrument may be a mortgage deed rather than a conveyance. The period's clearest high-dollar residential transfer was 143 Charlemont Road, which sold June 26 for $419,000. Sellers Mark C. and Debra J. Fiske conveyed the property to Paul and Diana Kocot. At 134 Clesson Brook Road, Pamela M. and Herbert R. Guyette transferred the property to Greenfield Cooperative Bank on July 1 for $160,000; a bank appearing as grantee in a deed is a pattern consistent with a lender acquisition or deed-in-lieu arrangement. The fourth priced sale, 72 Charlemont Road, changed hands June 23 for $157,000, with Douglas N. and Deborah M. DeCoigne selling to Jeremy N. and Nelson E. Lanoue.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN Charlemont Road was the only street to record multiple transfers in the period, accounting for two of the four priced sales at notably different price points: 72 Charlemont Road at $157,000 and 143 Charlemont Road at $419,000 — a $262,000 spread along the same corridor. The remaining eight transfers were distributed across single addresses: Rand Road, Clesson Brook Road, William Street, State Street, Gardner Falls Road, North Street, Lower Street, and one parcel with no street address recorded in the dataset.

MARKET NOTES Institutional and governmental parties figured prominently in the period's undisclosed-price transfers. At 187 Lower Street, the Franklin County Regional Housing Authority and a co-grantor listed as "Redevelopment A" conveyed the property to Mary Ann Powell on June 15, price not disclosed; transfers from a regional housing authority to an individual buyer are characteristic of affordable-housing or authority-managed dispositions. At 124 State Street, sellers listed as "Redevelopment A" and James J. Helenek Jr. recorded a deed June 29 with no buyer name or price in the dataset; the absence of a named grantee warrants verification at the registry. The deed at 38 William Street, recorded June 30 from grantor Todd Adam Boutwell, similarly listed no grantee in the provided data. A parcel identified only as Buckland, MA — with no street address — transferred July 1 from McCusker Anderson LLC to Hanna Investment Group LLC, price not disclosed; the LLC-to-LLC structure and absence of a street address limit further characterization from deed data alone. At 11 Rand Road, Edward Whitaker conveyed the property to Tara Mason on July 6, price not disclosed, and at 141 North Street, William Wollinger sold to James C. Bragdon on June 18, also price not disclosed.
