Only One Of Eight September Wendell Sales Shows Recorded Price

WENDELL -- Eight property deeds were recorded in Wendell between Aug. 28 and Sept. 26, but only one carried a sale price so far: a $240,000 land transfer to a conservation trust.

MARKET OVERVIEW

Eight deeds were recorded in Wendell during the period. Of those, one listed a sale price, $240,000, for an unaddressed parcel that sold Sept. 10. With price data available for just one of eight transactions, the recorded price range and median both stand at $240,000, a figure drawn from that single sale rather than the full period. The remaining seven prices had not yet reached the registry as of this report. No prior-period data was provided for comparison, so this report cannot characterize the pace as active or quiet beyond noting the raw count: eight deeds recorded over four weeks.

TOP SALES

The only transaction with a recorded price this period was an unaddressed Wendell parcel that sold Sept. 10 for $240,000. Kathleen C. Quinlan and Mark J. Stetz sold the property to Mount Grace Land Conservation Trust Inc.

Price data was not yet available for the other seven transactions recorded during the period

120 Old Egypt Road sold Sept. 21. Greenfield Savings Bank was the seller; James Slavas and Phyllis Lawrence were the buyers.

240 Farley Road sold Sept. 18. Bethany Rose Perry was the seller.

431 Wendell Depot Road sold Sept. 14. Massachusetts Electric Co. and New England Power Co. were the sellers.

127 Wendell Depot sold Sept. 11. New England Power Co. and the Massachusetts Comm Conservation Recreation agency were the sellers.

270 Wendell Depot Road sold Sept. 10. Wesley Scott Cassels and Alice Forehand were the sellers.

140 West St. sold Sept. 9. Donna Andrews was the seller; Robert Lafrance and Sara C. Hsiang were the buyers.

264 Wendell Depot Road sold Sept. 8. Franklin County Regional Housing Authority and Redevelopment A. were the sellers; Anna M. C. B. Hartjens was the buyer.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN

Four of the eight transactions recorded this period were on Wendell Depot Road or the adjacent Wendell Depot address: 431 Wendell Depot Road, 127 Wendell Depot, 270 Wendell Depot Road and 264 Wendell Depot Road. That cluster accounts for half of all recorded sales, though none of the four has a recorded price yet. The remaining four sales were spread across Old Egypt Road, Farley Road, West Street and one unaddressed Wendell parcel, with no other street showing more than one transaction.

MARKET NOTES

Bed, bath and square-footage figures were not available in the deed data for any of the eight sales, so no price-per-square-foot comparison can be made this period. Two of the Wendell Depot Road transfers, at 431 and 127 Wendell Depot, listed utility or regional conservation entities, Massachusetts Electric Co., New England Power Co. and the Massachusetts Comm Conservation Recreation agency, as sellers, distinct from the individual-to-individual sales recorded elsewhere. The 264 Wendell Depot Road sale listed the Franklin County Regional Housing Authority as a seller. The period's only priced sale went to Mount Grace Land Conservation Trust Inc., a conservation organization rather than an individual buyer. None of the eight deeds identified a trust or estate as a grantor.
