Colonial and Cape Cod homes on smaller suburban lots

Price tags for single-family homes typically start at around $400,000. As square footage increases, so do prices, with homes over 2,500 square feet starting in the $600,000s. The largest homes can reach about $650,000, and some outliers include more expansive, luxury builds fetching up to $1 million.
