Chelmsford Condos

Overview

Bordered by both the Concord and Merrimack Rivers, this town has a pleasant urban density and often spectacular natural views. Located only 24 miles from Boston, the city is reachable by several major transportation routes, including Interstate 495, Route 3A, and Route 110. Currently served by bus, the city will likely have its own stop on the MBTA Commuter Rail line within the next few years. Not surprisingly, the demand to live here is high, which is reflected in the vibrant condo market. The average purchase price in this town for a residential unit is $215, and the typical monthly association fee is $350. Thanks to a series of redevelopment efforts, many units now exist in older industrial buildings dating from 1900 or the mid 19th century that have been converted into residences. There has also been a spate of new construction within the last decade. Listings usually find a buyer within two to three weeks of being placed on the market.

Inside the Market

Some of the most beautiful units in this city started out as industrial warehouses. The interiors often make the most of the older materials, leaving swaths of brick and the original timber beams exposed. Many of the units have a loft-style arrangement whereby the bedrooms are located above the open plan living area. Some units span two or more floors, and feature a number of charming period details from the building’s previous life as a factory. However, other complexes of this type plaster over the original materials in order to provide luxurious finishes and state of the art appliances. In most cases, the kitchens and bathrooms feature all modern materials, as they were installed decades after the initial construction. These dense complexes offer residents the opportunity to live in a large building that usually offers dramatic views of the nearby river as well as numerous shared amenities, including onsite restaurants, cafes, fitness centers, and gorgeously landscaped interior courtyards.

Other units in this city stand alone on relatively ample lots ranging in size from half an acre to several acres as part of a planned community. These units tend to have a clapboard exterior and gabled roofs. The front entryway generally features an overhang that shelters visitors from the elements. This entryway can either take the form of a cloth canopy or a wooden overhang that is supported by neoclassical columns. An attached garage is common in units of this type, and can usually be converted into a storage space for those residents who do not regularly drive a car. The outdoor space that comes with these types of units usually includes an elevated balcony or deck which is large enough to entertain a sizable crowd. The yard itself may be relatively ornamented, or feature custom landscaping that is provided as part of the monthly association fee. The interiors of these properties usually feature high, lofty ceilings with skylights or other ornamentation, as well as a grand central staircase with elegant wooden banisters. Depending on the year of their construction, some residences may feature bay windows or other architectural flourishes. In contemporary construction, one fireplace in the living room is common. For those units built before 1900, multiple fireplaces may be present within several different rooms of the residence.

Based on recent activity in its commercial real estate market, the city is only poised to continue to grow as a desirable place to live and work. Several national technology and retail companies have leased significant amounts of office space in the city, creating demand for more housing and mixed-use projects. The dense network of restaurants, shops, and local businesses downtown continues to function as a reliable economic core, while the redevelopment of existing buildings into new residential complexes bodes well for rapid property value appreciation. Combined with its scenic views and bustling atmosphere, the city is an excellent opportunity for potential investors.
