Colonials, farmhouses and waterfront properties
Houses in Greenfield are a blend of older, more traditional ones and newer construction. “Price-wise, because Greenfield is west of Concord, homes are going to be less,” Boucher says. Colonial homes with farmhouse features like front porches can be found on the market for anywhere between $450,000 and $850,000. There are also Cape Cods and ranch-style homes with 1,500 square feet. Craftsman homes with a modern design and front gables cost around $400,000 to $650,000. Some areas of the neighborhood have modern condos for those who want something smaller. Out in the country, large farmhouses with detached barns and acres of land start at $450,000 and can get up to $1.2 million.
