Homes sold for $1 million and up

This page is about homes that sold for $1 million or more, not about who should live in a town. From January 1 to November 6, 2026, Hingham had 152 closed sales at or above $1 million, Duxbury had 102, Scituate had 90, and Norwell had 56 (Source: MLS PIN, Market Numbers “$1M+ slice” tab, labeled as of 11/6/2026). These are town totals, not a list of my own sales. If you are selling a higher-priced home, I will still start with a walk-through and with comps that match your house.

I look at every house the way a builder would. I keep my listings to 6 to 8 at a time, so you work with me.

The counts I can use right now

The Market Numbers sheet does not have a top-quartile column. The cut it does have is sales at or above $1 million. The table below includes only towns with a usable sample (the sheet’s low-sample flag is N, and the year-to-date count is at least 10). Figures as of 11/6/2026.

I am not headlining towns the sheet marks as low-sample, including rows where the 90-day or year-to-date count is under 10. Some page towns are still blank or missing on this tab. I will not fill those gaps by guessing.

A town median is not the top of that town

A median sale price is the middle sale. It does not tell you whether a town also had homes sell for $1 million or more.

Plymouth is the clear example. From January 1 to November 6, 2026, the median single-family sale in Plymouth was $720,000 (Source: MLS PIN, Town Metrics, pulled 11/6/2026). In that same stretch, Plymouth still had 120 closed sales at or above $1 million (Source: MLS PIN, Market Numbers “$1M+ slice” tab, labeled as of 11/6/2026). If you have a higher-priced home in a town whose median sits lower, the median alone can hide the sales that actually match your house. I pull the sales that fit the home, not only the town midpoint.

How this lines up with Hingham, Duxbury, Scituate, and Norwell

Those four towns also have the highest current single-family medians I can quote from the 11/6/2026 Town Metrics pull: $1,540,000 in Hingham, $1,250,000 in Duxbury, $1,125,000 in Scituate, and $1,100,000 in Norwell (Source: MLS PIN, Town Metrics, pulled 11/6/2026). You can see those town figures side by side on my Hingham, Duxbury, Scituate, and Norwell page.

The $1 million-and-up counts add a second view. Hingham led this group, with 152 such sales. Duxbury had 102, Scituate had 90, and Norwell had 56. On November 6, 2026, Hingham had 35 of those homes for sale, Duxbury had 19, Scituate had 20, and Norwell had 16.

Among the 90-day sales in that price cut, the median days on market were 17 in Hingham, 23 in Scituate, 33 in Duxbury, and 38 in Norwell. That is a different window than the year-to-date town medians on the compare page, and it only includes homes that sold at or above $1 million. I would not treat any of those days-on-market figures as a promise for one house.

What this means if you are selling

If your home may sit in this price range, the right comps matter even more. I walk the house first. Then I look at recent sales at a similar price and in similar condition, in your town and, when it is honest to do so, in the next town over. I will tell you what I would fix, what I would leave, and what I think buyers will do with the condition they see.

Questions about homes sold for $1 million and up

Which of these towns had the most sales at or above $1 million?

Hingham had 152 closed sales at or above $1 million from January 1 to November 6, 2026, the most of the towns with a usable count on this page (Source: MLS PIN, Market Numbers “$1M+ slice” tab, labeled as of 11/6/2026). Plymouth had 120, Duxbury had 102, and Scituate had 90.

Does a lower town median mean there were no $1 million sales?

No. Plymouth’s median single-family sale was $720,000 from January 1 to November 6, 2026, and Plymouth still had 120 closed sales at or above $1 million in that stretch (Source: MLS PIN, Town Metrics, pulled 11/6/2026, and Market Numbers “$1M+ slice” tab, labeled as of 11/6/2026).

How many homes priced at $1 million and up were for sale on November 6, 2026?

On November 6, 2026, there were 35 active listings at or above $1 million in Hingham, 19 in Duxbury, 20 in Scituate, 16 in Norwell, and 39 in Plymouth (Source: MLS PIN, Market Numbers “$1M+ slice” tab, labeled as of 11/6/2026).

Are these counts my own sales?

No. The counts on this page are town market totals from MLS PIN, not a list of sales I personally handled. If you want comps for your home, I will pull the sales that match your house and walk through them with you.
