Hamilton’s housing stock and prices at a glance
Up and down the neighborhood’s hills, you’ll see homes with an established feel and traditional architecture. “The area runs the gamut on housing styles,” says Chad King, a real estate agent with Prospective Realty, Inc., who was born and raised in Central Massachusetts. “You have your New England classic three- or four-family buildings next to generational single-family homes. You tend to find a lot more multifamilies located around the park and school.” Small cottages with features like pitched roofs or pastel colors can range in price from the low $300,000s to the high $400,000s. Duplexes typically cost between the low $500,000s and the low $600,000s, while multifamily properties often run from the low $700,000s to the low $900,000s.

Dining districts and shopping centers near Hamilton
While Hamilton is primarily residential, it offers easy access to shopping and dining in nearby neighborhoods. “The two largest draws to being in this area are Shrewsbury Street and Belmont Street, or Route 9,” King says. “These two streets alone have amazing restaurants and shopping for all your needs, but let's not forget the mom and pops that shape these areas.” Drive on Route 9 for about 2 miles, and you’ll reach Shrewsbury, the next town over. Here, shopping centers include grocery stores like Shaw’s, Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods Market, local and chain restaurants, pharmacies and everyday services. To the west, Shrewsbury Street, Worcester’s dining district, offers a wide variety of local restaurant options, from pizza and beer at Volturno to upscale steak dinners at One Eleven Chop House. Local eateries surround Hamilton, too, including Dino's Restaurant for Italian, Madulka's Ice Cream and Palma’s Bakery & Café for coffee and pastries in the morning.
