Cambridge, Back Bay and Salem all saw huge home sales this week
A Back Bay condo sold for $5,250,000.
Though it is hard to beat last week’s most expensive home sale ever in Boston, this week had some pretty big purchases in and around the Hub. Here’s this week’s roundup of notable sales.
29 Marlborough Street Apt. 6, Boston
This four-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom, 2,774-square-foot duplex condo in Boston’s Back Bay sold for $5,250,000 on November 9. That trumps the $2,220,000 average home price for the neighborhood by quite a lot, which may not be surprising given the crazy views and large private roof deck. The condo has high ceilings, hardwood floors, a gourmet kitchen, and a corner exposure.
On November 10, this four-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom, 3,357-square-foot single-family home sold for $3,693,000. This price is well above the $849,450 average home price in Cambridge. The 1841 home is in the Old Cambridge Historic District near Havard Square and has three fireplaces, a sky-lit entrance hall, a chef’s kitchen, and a garage.
99-60 Florence Street Apt. 5B, Newton
This 5,114-square-foot Newton penthouse home with four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms sold for $3,000,000 on November 6.

On November 6, this Federal style home sold in Salem for $1,200,000, well above the $312,450 average home price in the North Shore town.
