Named after Sandwich, Kent in England, Sandwich, Massachusetts is located in Barnstable County and has a population of around 20,000 people. It was settled in 1637 by Europeans who had recently arrived in Plymouth Colony. While many historical markers and buildings can still be found in the area, the housing market in Sandwich features both historical and modern homes for sale. You can have your choice of both when you sign up for an open house in this city.
Given its historic significance in Massachusetts, it stands to reason why the homes feature colonial-style designs. Three-bedroom homes are among the most common found for sale in this city. A three-bedroom home will have an asking price of $375,000 to $500,000, on average. These homes are usually more recent in their construction, with most having been made after 1986. Some of the older and more historic homes are also up for sale on occasion. For example, a home that was built in 1730 with four bedrooms and three bathrooms can sell for as high as $600,000. Both modern and historic homes have comforts like fireplaces and carpeted bedrooms for your convenience.
