Abington Condos
Overview
Located twenty miles south of Boston, this city has a modest density and a suitably robust condo market. Many of the residential units here are located either within spacious communities with separate lots or in small clusters interwoven into single family residential neighborhoods. The downtown section, which consists mainly of brick buildings that do not exceed three stories in height, has a few units that occasionally are listed for sale. However, the bulk of properties exist near lush forests, city parks, and the Shumatuscacant River, which lines the edge of the city near the Brockton city border. The average purchase price is $230 per square foot, which a typical monthly association fee ranging from between $225 to $380. The property values in the area have been steadily appreciating thanks to several different factors, the most prominent of which is the town’s proximity to Boston, as well as its easily accessible public transit system. In addition to the MBTA Commuter Rail line stop on the Plymouth-Kingston route, the town can also be accessed via Route 18, Route 123, Route 58, and Route 139. As housing pressures continue to mount in the greater Boston area, this city is poised to become even more valuable to investors and current homeowners. Currently, listings rarely last for longer than a week before finding a suitable buyer.

Inside the Market
Some of the properties in this area are housed in a complex that resembles a massive single family home or mansion. These large complexes, which frequently have one grand front entrance and a few select rear entrances, usually favor a neoclassical aesthetic. Understated columns line the front entryway, while landscaping surrounds the edge of the property. The units themselves frequently have two floors which are connected by a grand central staircase. In some units, the staircase doubles as a storage space. In others, the staircase opens up to a loft or mezzanine level that overlooks the principal living space, providing a high ceiling and spectacular atrium-like space. Skylights are frequently part of these configurations, adding shafts of light throughout the property. Because the units are arranged in a compact fashion, the lot itself is usually dedicated to open space. In some cases, this can provide room for outdoor playground equipment or landscape elements, such as trees or a gazebo. An onsite parking structure may be provided, although depending on how close the units are to public transit, this option may not be part of the arrangement. Many newer developments have been forsaking onsite parking.
The city of Abington has been considering redeveloping several industrial buildings close to the city center into new housing units. These developments have been designed with an eye toward civic integration in terms of their public spaces. Because they are adapting an older building into a contemporary dwelling that has an existing street presence, the proposed developments will likely feature amenities on the ground floor where they can be easily accessed by both residents and visitors. The residential units themselves will be located on the upper floors of the building, and will likely leave some of the original materials, such as brick and timber beams, exposed. This is part of a larger trend that finds exposed materials to be both fashionable and alluring to potential buyers. The addition of these units to the area’s housing stock will likely bolster the economic activity in the immediate vicinity, thereby increasing the property values of existing residential dwellings.
