Montclair, a sought-after Boston suburb
Montclair is as close to Boston as Quincy gets. This residential neighborhood hugs the south side of the Neponset River across from the Boston neighborhood of Dorchester. Residents enjoy access to outdoor amenities along the river and a plethora of diverse culinary options within walking distance. Commuters appreciate the neighborhood's plentiful access to public transportation options, including a train that takes them to Boston. "People are drawn to the convenience of Montclair because of the train stations and supermarkets," says Yong Tan, a Realtor with Central Real Estate who sells houses in the neighborhood. Homes are valued highly because of the proximity to Boston and the waterfront.

Condos and single-family homes
The neighborhood offers single-family homes and condos built primarily between the turn of the 20th century and the 1970s. Homebuyers will find typical 20th-century New England-style properties, like 1940s Cape Cods with dormer windows and raised ranch-style homes with brick facades. One-bedroom 1970s condos sell for between $290,000 and $380,000, and two-bedroom newly built condos sell for around $700,000. Homebuyers can purchase a three-bedroom 1940s single-family home for between $550,000 and $770,000. Assessors value four-bedroom houses from the 1910s and 20s at between $660,000 and $950,000. "People tend to stay for a long time. The turnover isn't high," Tan says.
