Acton Condos
Overview
Located in a densely forested region of the state, this town is also only twenty miles from Boston, lending it a vibrant mixture of urbanity and nature. The topography here alternates between tracts of forest, streams, and hills, creating an arresting visual canopy that lends itself to stand alone condos on large, inviting lots. The average purchase price for a unit is $220 per square foot. The monthly association fee tends to have quite a wide range depending on the specific area in which the property is located. Some units are located in developments that are targeted to senior citizens, which tend to have much higher monthly association fees. For all the units that are open to the general market, the monthly association rate usually varies between $200 to $300. Listings in this area tend to find a buyer within one to two months, depending on the specific condition of the sale.

Inside the Market
Unsurprisingly, a number of stand alone units have been recently constructed near the city’s MBTA Commuter Rail line stop. These units tend to favor colorful clapboard siding paired with neoclassical or craftsman-style features. Doric columns and broad, stone-based pillars frequently ornament the front entryway, which in many units has been expanded to function as a porch during the seasonal months. These units tend to have a large one or two car garage that can double as a storage space for those residents who prefer not to own a motor vehicle. Gabled roofs are common, and multi-level layouts are standard. Many of the newer developments have what is known as a flexible floor plan, which allows potential residents the option to customize their living space according to a menu of prefabricated options. These options can include choices that can add or subtract walls from the common areas, as well as increase the size of a bedroom or divide it to provide more private areas within the home.
While these options are not necessarily always available with older units, these properties have their own amenities that tend to appeal to a particular buyer. Many of these residential properties tend to be located on incredibly scenic plots of land. The layout tends to favor scenic views of the surrounding landscape, and in many cases the older units have recently been renovated to feature the latest in stainless steel appliances, cabinets, and flooring. Many of these renovated units feature heated floors and triple pane windows which dramatically decrease energy costs during both the summer and winter months. The bathrooms often feature charming period fixtures such as a stand alone bathtub or a kitchen with roomy countertops that makes food preparation easy.
While most of these older units date back no farther than the 1960s or 1970s, the extensive history of the area means that occasionally a vintage property constructed during the 18th century may come to market. These properties tend to feature fireplaces in most of the rooms, as well as an abundance of brick and stone. Some of these properties are converted into multiple housing units, offering residents the rare opportunity to live inside a historic structure with fresh, luxurious fixtures. Additionally, the city has undertaken a development plan to restore and expand certain municipal buildings, including the town library, as well as a few commercial buildings. This emphasis on maintaining an active economic core will only help current homeowners add value to their home, and help future residents relish their wise choice of investment.
