All Three Middlefield Property Transfers in June-July Recorded Without Disclosed Prices

MIDDLEFIELD -- Three property transfers recorded in Middlefield between late June and early July 2026 offer a limited window into local real estate activity, with none of the transactions carrying a disclosed sale price.

MARKET OVERVIEW Three deeds were recorded in the period from June 23 through July 6, 2026. Because no consideration amounts were disclosed in any of the three transactions, a price range and median cannot be calculated. The volume of three transfers over a roughly four-week span is a modest count for the period; the absence of pricing data limits meaningful market analysis.

TOP SALES No sale prices were disclosed for any of the three recorded transactions. The transfers, in deed-recorded order, are as follows: 116 Skyline Trail, sold July 6, with Daniel Cimini listed as buyer and Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems Inc. (MERS) as seller; 75 West Hill Rd., sold June 30, with Carl A. and Laura H. Lafreniere listed as buyers and Joan Wright as seller; and 0 West Hill Rd., sold June 23, with the Town of Middlefield listed as buyer and Rickey J. Beckett Jr. and Elizabeth A. Beckett listed as sellers.

NEIGHBORHOOD BREAKDOWN Two of the three transfers involved West Hill Road, making it the only street with multiple transactions this period. The June 23 transfer at 0 West Hill Rd. -- a parcel with no street number, suggesting vacant or unimproved land -- was acquired by the Town of Middlefield. The June 30 transfer at 75 West Hill Rd. was a conventional deed from an individual seller to a pair of buyers. The third transfer, at 116 Skyline Trail, involved a deed originating from MERS, a registry commonly associated with mortgage-related conveyances.

MARKET NOTES The most structurally distinct transaction this period is the municipal acquisition at 0 West Hill Rd., in which the Town of Middlefield purchased a parcel from Rickey J. Beckett Jr. and Elizabeth A. Beckett. Municipal land acquisitions are recorded at the Registry of Deeds alongside conventional sales but represent a different category of transfer; the parcel's designation as "0 West Hill Rd." is consistent with vacant or undeveloped land. The Skyline Trail deed lists MERS as grantor, a pattern sometimes associated with foreclosure-related conveyances, though the deed data alone does not confirm that characterization. No price data is available for any transfer, and no price-per-square-foot or property-type analysis is possible with the available records.
