Peabody Home Prices Span $525,000 To $885,000 In Latest Deed Filings

PEABODY -- Fifteen property transfers recorded at the Essex County (Southern District) Registry of Deeds between Aug. 28 and Sept. 26 show sale prices ranging from $525,000 to $885,000, with a median of $661,500 among the eight transactions carrying a recorded price so far.

MARKET OVERVIEW The registry recorded 15 Peabody property transfers in the period, of which eight carry a sale price and seven show price not yet available, a common lag for recently filed deeds. Among the priced sales, the low was $525,000 and the high was $885,000, with a median of $661,500. A count of 15 transfers in roughly a month is a moderate volume on its own; the data does not include prior-period figures for comparison.

TOP SALES The period's highest-priced sale was 48 Franklin St, which sold for $885,000 on Sept. 25; Jason Sablone sold to Darlin Hernandez. A second transaction, recorded under the registry entry "SEE RECORD" with no street address specified in the available data, sold for $729,000 on Sept. 25; Russell J. Lebel, as representative of an estate, sold to Isamar Andreina Perez. At 3 Washington Pl, Lot C, the sale price was $675,000 on Sept. 25, with Jacob J. Maki selling to Martha Ba. At 2 Herrick Rd, Lot 1, the price was $673,000 on Sept. 24, with Charlotte Narbonne, as estate representative, selling to Dimar Torres. At 4902 Heatherwood Lane, the sale price was $650,000 on Sept. 24, with Lisa A. Marchese selling to Michele Ring.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN No street in the dataset had more than one recorded sale, so no single-street cluster emerged this period. By price tier among the eight priced sales: two sold above $700,000 (48 Franklin St at $885,000 and the "SEE RECORD" entry at $729,000); four sold between $600,000 and $700,000 (3 Washington Pl at $675,000, 2 Herrick Rd at $673,000, 4902 Heatherwood Lane at $650,000, and 18 Dana Rd, Lot 224, at $633,000); and two sold below $600,000 (29 Newcastle Rd, Lot 266, at $545,000, and 4 Pinewood Rd, Lot 4, at $525,000).

MARKET NOTES Nine of the 15 recorded addresses include a unit or lot designation (Washington Place, Dana Road, Newcastle Road, Curwen Street, Juniper Road, Herrick Road, Pinewood Road, Dahlia Avenue, Samoset Road, Northend Street and Beacon Boulevard all carry lot, unit or building numbers), indicating the period's activity leaned toward condominium-style properties rather than standalone single-family homes. Bedroom, bathroom and square-footage figures are not available from the deed records provided.

Four of the seven transfers without a recorded price show the same or a closely related name on both sides of the transaction: 12 Brown St (Nicholas Tsitsinos, as trustee, to Nicholas Tsitsinos), 16 Dahlia Ave, Lot 27 (Karen E. Roan to Karen E. Roan, as trustee), 12 Samoset Rd, Lot 7 (Philip J. Waldman to the Jeffrey Waldman Trust) and 18 Beacon Blvd, Lot 154 (Patricia A. Manning to the Patricia A. Manning Revocable Trust). A fifth, 33 Northend St, Lot 64, transferred from the "Mar M Ram Fam Irr Tru" trust to an individual with a similar name, Ramos M.M. These filings are consistent with family or estate-related transfers moving property into or out of a trust rather than open-market sales, though the deed data does not indicate the reason for each transfer.
