The latest round of property sales across Berkshire County in Massachusetts, along with neighboring Litchfield County in Connecticut and Columbia County in New York, shows a steady market with a mix of single-family homes, condominiums, and land parcels changing hands. Realtors report that demand remains consistent, particularly for properties under the million-dollar mark, as buyers continue to seek out the region's blend of rural charm and cultural attractions.
In Berkshire County, a three-bedroom Colonial in Pittsfield sold for $345,000, while a renovated ranch in Great Barrington closed at $625,000. The condo market also saw activity, with a two-bedroom unit in Lenox going for $410,000. Litchfield County transactions included a historic farmhouse in Salisbury priced at $1.2 million and a more modest cape in Torrington that sold for $275,000. Across the border in Columbia County, a lakefront cottage in Copake fetched $480,000, and a commercial property in Hudson changed hands for $850,000.
Local agents note that inventory levels are slightly higher than this time last year, giving buyers more options but also requiring sellers to price competitively. Interest rates have held relatively steady, which has helped maintain buyer confidence. The mix of transactions this week reflects the area's appeal to both full-time residents and second-home buyers looking for weekend retreats.
