Medfield

A refined residential enclave defined by historic stewardship, the scenic grounds of the former State Hospital, and an increasingly sophisticated local dining scene.

Medfield Neighborhood Update: February 2026

The Medfield market remains remarkably resilient as we move through the first quarter of 2026. While the "winter chill" typically slows down activity, we are seeing a pragmatic and active market, particularly in the mid-to-high luxury segments.

Metric Current Stat Trend vs Last Year
Median Sale Price $963,000 📈 +11.4%
Average Home Value $1,024,167 📈 +2.1%
Median Days on Market 27 Days 📉 -11 Days
Sale-to-List Price Ratio 101% 📈 +2.5%
Kate’s Take: The "Ground Truth"

While the numbers show a double-digit jump in median sale price, the real story is in the speed. With median days on market dropping to 27 days, the best inventory is moving nearly two weeks faster than it did last winter.

For Sellers, this means your timing is critical—pre-list prep (the “House Whisperer” details like staging and minor structural wins) is what drives that 101% sale-to-list ratio. For Buyers, it means being ready with your “smart numbers” and a clear vision of your “must-haves” before the open house even starts.
