Nahant Median Sale Price Tops $937,000 as Two Homes Exceed $2 Million
NAHANT -- Two residential transactions closed above $2 million in Nahant during the late-July through late-August period, anchoring a market where the median sale price among disclosed transactions reached $937,337 across 12 recorded deeds.
- MARKET OVERVIEW
- Twelve deeds were recorded between July 31 and Aug. 29, 2026, with sale prices disclosed in eight of those transactions. The eight disclosed sales ranged from $500,000 to $2,100,000, producing a median of $937,337. Four transfers carried no disclosed consideration, a common pattern in deed records where trust-related or intra-family conveyances are involved. The raw volume of 12 recorded deeds in a single month represents an active period for a small coastal community.
- TOP SALES
- The highest-priced transaction of the period was 12 Lafayette Ter., which sold for $2,100,000 on Aug. 6. The deed shows Gray W. Rifkin as trustee-seller and Jennifer Davis as trustee-buyer. Notably, a separate deed recorded Aug. 25 at the same address, also identified as Lots 12 and 13, lists Rifkin as buyer from Kevin P. Geaney as trustee-seller, at no disclosed price; that earlier-recorded conveyance appears to precede the Aug. 6 sale in the deed sequence.
The second-highest transaction was 250 Wilson Rd., which sold for $2,070,000 on July 31; Bernadette C. McCaffrey was the seller and Enzo Raggiani the buyer.
Third was 26 Karolyn Cir., which sold for $965,000 on Aug. 21; Steven A. Landry sold to Makoto Senoo.
Two additional sales rounded out the upper tier: 36 Lennox Rd. at $939,675, from Conrad Lheureux to Jeremy Valance on July 31; and 85 Willow Rd. at $935,000, from Barbara A. Rossi as trustee to Heidi L. Hashem on Aug. 6.
- NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN
- Lafayette Terrace accounted for two recorded deeds this period, both referencing Lots 12 and 13 at No. 12, making it the only street with multiple entries. Among streets with single disclosed sales, Wilson Road and Karolyn Circle led by price, both above $935,000. Willow Road and Lennox Road fell in a tight band just below $940,000. Emerald Road and Maple Avenue occupied the mid-range, at $770,000 and $667,000 respectively. Sea View Avenue recorded the lowest disclosed sale at $500,000. Pond Street, Fox Hill Road, and Christopher Drive each recorded a transfer with no disclosed consideration.
- MARKET NOTES
- Of the 12 recorded deeds, at least three show the same surname appearing on both the grantor and grantee lines, or a shift from an individual name to a trustee designation: 47 Pond St. transferred from Nicholas A. Kersten as representative to Nicholas A. Kersten individually; 110 Fox Hill Rd. transferred from Nancy J. Antrim to Rex Ihrig Antrim as trustee; and 5 Christopher Dr. transferred from Brian Burke to Brian F. Burke as trustee. These conveyances carry no disclosed consideration, consistent with estate planning or trust administration transfers. The 30 Emerald Rd. deed identifies the seller as Eight One Eight Design and Development LLC, the lone corporate or development-entity seller in the dataset, with a sale price of $770,000 to Deborah J. Murphy for Unit 2, suggesting a condominium or multi-unit structure.
