Another $5.8 million sale in Marblehead
In May, 204 Ocean Avenue sold for a MLS-record $5.8 million. This week 329 Ocean Avenue sold for the same price. These are the first sales over $5 million in Marblehead since 2010.
And this week a house was listed at a fraction under $3 million and received an offer within 2 days.
More signs that the top end of Marblehead is bursting into life.

Marblehead Inventory plummets
The number of Single Family Homes (SFH) for sale in Marblehead on September 1 is 52, down by one-third from last year and by nearly a half from 2015.
SFH Inventory by price
Not surprisingly, the biggest declines in inventory are at the lowest price levels, but there are still significant declines at virtually every price level.
Median Price
Strong demand, low mortgage rates and low supply continue to drive prices upwards. The median price of a SFH in Marblehead for the first 8 months of the year was $654,000, up 75.5% from the year 2016 figure of $620,000, the first time the median price reached $600,000. Unless and until the supply position changes, and while the economy continues to grow steadily, there is no reason to expect a change in the formula which is driving prices higher.

There is an Open House today 2:00-3:30, or call for a private showing. The website includes a video of the property – and of the views.
Can you imagine living here and waking up to this?

Are granite and stainless steel on the way out?
As homeowners opt for more modern kitchen designs, they’re also opting for more understated countertop alternatives. So says this HomeAdvisor.com article:Is granite going out of style?
The article also reminds us of the benefits of granite:”it’s both durable and attractive — and it’s become increasingly affordable too.”
Another homeadvisor.com article posed the question Stainless steel: the end of an era?”
Again, the article is not hailing the end of stainless steel, but points out that “a new generation of materials and designs are challenging the age-old assumptions over appliance aesthetics.”
