SALISBURY — In March, Salisbury’s median home price rose 9.3% from March of 2024 to $975,000.

Median prices of Salisbury single family homes have steadily risen since December 2024 to achieve a 22 year record at the end of March.

Two of the three residential sales, including the sale of playwright David Rabe’s home on Ore Mine Road, were sold for over a million dollars, each with over 10 acres of land.

The two commercial sales on Main Street in Salisbury, each which have a retail space on the street level and an apartment above, seem like bargains at $560,000 and $400,000.

At the end of the first week in April there were 23 single family homes listed for sale with seven categorized as new listings. This has risen since mid-March when there were only 17 houses for sale — the selling season may have begun.

Inventory in the rental market has also increased to 23 listings in the last three weeks, including ten furnished summer homes ranging from $3,300 to $75,000.
