Reading Median Sale Price Hits $1.08M in June on Nine Disclosed Transactions

READING -- A $2.4 million transaction on Fairchild Drive headlined Reading's June residential property activity, pushing the median sale price among disclosed transactions to $1.08 million as the town recorded 19 deed transfers during the period.

• MARKET OVERVIEW
• The South Middlesex Registry of Deeds recorded 19 property transfers in Reading between May 31 and June 29, 2026. Of those, nine included a disclosed consideration amount. Among the nine priced sales, figures ranged from $274,000 to $2.4 million, with a median of $1,080,000. The remaining 10 transfers carried no disclosed price — a common occurrence in deed data, particularly where trust or estate-related conveyances are involved. With nine arm's-length or disclosed-price sales over roughly a month, the pace reflects a measured level of market activity rather than an unusually high or low volume for a suburban community of Reading's size.
• TOP SALES
• 134 Fairchild Drive led all transactions at $2,400,000. Kevin J. Simard sold the property to David and Monica M. Neshat on June 2. The sale stands as the period's sole transaction above $2 million.

33 Old Farm Road changed hands for $1,270,000 on June 4, with Bingbin Dai and Jianping Hou selling to Jaclyn and Andrew Freedman.

313 South Street sold for $1,150,000 on June 2. The Bradley Family Revocable Trust, with Judith A. Bradley as trustee, conveyed the property to Manel and Darline Thompson.

303 Haven Street, Unit 1, sold for $1,125,000 on June 5. Paul M. Burke III and Emily S. Burke sold to Sofia Guasch and Michael Harris.

119 Salem Street, Unit 119, rounded out the top five at $1,080,000. Brendon T. and Lindsay M. Clark sold to Linda R. and Peter C. Beal Jr., both acting as trustees, on June 3.

• NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN
• Fairchild Drive produced two recorded transfers this period — 66 Fairchild Drive (price not disclosed, a trust conveyance) and 134 Fairchild Drive ($2.4 million) — making it the only street to appear twice in the data outside of trust-related patterns.

Four of the nine priced sales exceeded $1.1 million: 134 Fairchild Drive, 33 Old Farm Road, 313 South Street, and 303 Haven Street Unit 1.

Two sales fell in the $900,000–$1 million range: 544 Pearl Street at $999,000 and 82 Orange Street at $981,000.

561 Summer Avenue sold at $750,000, representing the sole transaction in the $500,000–$999,000 tier below the top two entries.

1013 Gazebo Circle, Unit 1013, sold for $274,000 — the period's lowest disclosed price and the only transaction under $500,000. The grantor and grantee share the McCarthy surname, suggesting a transfer between related parties, though the deed data does not confirm the nature of the relationship.

• MARKET NOTES
• Of the 19 recorded transfers, at least eight appear to be intra-family or trust-related conveyances based on shared surnames or the transfer of property into a named revocable or family trust — entries at 532 West Street, 43 Belmont Street, 74 Prescott Street, 66 Fairchild DR, 46 Colburn Road, 34 Virginia Road, 38 Bond Street, and 112 Winthrop Avenue. One entry (record 12) lacked a street address entirely in the deed data and could not be assigned a location. Bed, bath, and square footage data are not available from deed records and are not reported here. Without price-per-square-foot figures, direct value comparisons between properties cannot be made.
