Burlington Home Prices Span $2.35 Million Gap Between Priciest And Cheapest Sales

BURLINGTON -- Nineteen properties changed hands in Burlington between July 24 and August 22, but sale prices were disclosed in only six of those transactions, ranging from $270,600 to $2,620,000 with a median of $657,500 among the priced sales.

MARKET OVERVIEW The registry recorded 19 property transfers during the period. Of those, six deeds listed a consideration amount, ranging from $270,600 to $2,620,000, with a median of $657,500. The other 13 sales carried no disclosed price, a pattern common in deed data and not unusual on its own. Twelve of the 19 transactions involved a grantor and grantee with matching family names, typically an individual or couple transferring property into a personal or family trust. Whether the 19-sale count reflects an active or quiet period cannot be determined from this data alone, since no prior-period figures were provided for comparison.

TOP SALES The month's highest-priced transaction was 61 Lexington St, which sold for $2,620,000 on July 31. HCR Construction Inc. was the seller; the buyers were Ali Eghlima, as trustee, and the Family Legacy Living Trust for Ali Eghlima.

225 Middlesex Turnpike Ext, Unit 101, sold for $999,000 on August 7. FK Partners Burlington LLC was the seller; Someswararao Goriparthi was the buyer.

33 Daniel Dr sold for $690,000 on July 31. The sellers were Sheriu A. McLeish and the estate of Robert Giglio; the buyers were Augustina and Brian J. McCarthy.

5 Ganley Dr sold for $625,000 on August 4. The seller was Marjorie Elizabeth Guiney, as trustee of the MEG Living Trust; the buyer was Ganley LLC.

48 Purity Springs Rd sold for $575,000 on July 31. The seller was Georgine A. Grissop; the buyer was Locust Construction Group LLC.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN No street in the dataset recorded more than one sale, so no street-level clustering emerged this period. By price tier among the six disclosed sales: one sale fell under $500,000 (59 Center St, Unit 311, at $270,600); four sales fell in the $500,000-to-$1-million range (48 Purity Springs Rd, 5 Ganley Dr, 33 Daniel Dr and 225 Middlesex Turnpike Ext); and one sale topped $1 million (61 Lexington St, at $2,620,000). The remaining 13 transactions carried no disclosed price and could not be placed into a tier.

MARKET NOTES Twelve of the 19 recorded transfers, or roughly 63%, listed a grantor and grantee sharing the same surname, with the buyer typically named as trustee of a personal or family trust. These included transfers on Long Street, Holden Avenue, Maureen Drive, Manor Avenue, Spruce Hill Road, Olean Road, Wilmington Road, Whitney Street, Woodside Lane, College Road, Skelton Road and one entry listing no street address, plus a second Wilmington Road-area transfer among the Sherburne family. None of these trust transfers carried a disclosed sale price.

Limited liability companies appeared on both sides of the ledger: FK Partners Burlington LLC sold the month's second-highest-priced property, while Ganley LLC, Locust Construction Group LLC and Sandybrook Rd LLC (23 Sandy Brook Rd) were buyers, the latter two in transactions without a disclosed price. One transaction, 59 Center St Unit 311, involved a seller identified in part as an estate (Jane M. McLaughlin Est.).
