FALLS VILLAGE — By the end of summer only four sales were recorded in Canaan/Falls Village in August and September — half the number of the previous two months. Falls Village is a small market with only 15 sales per year recently — down significantly from the two plus homes a month during 2021. Although median home prices reached a high of $721,000 in December 2023, the current 12 month median is $675,000 and headed upward. All four property transfers recorded in August and September were sold by non-Canaan residents.

As of Oct. 23 there were six residential properties for sale all listed above $600,000, plus four parcels of land, and the Falls Village post office with one furnished seasonal rental.
