Colonial Homes for Sale in Northampton, MA

Find Northampton, MA Colonial Homes for Sale

Northampton has been building since the sixteen fifties, so the colonial listings here run from genuinely early houses to twentieth century revivals. The oldest sit on Bridge Street, Elm Street and the roads out toward Hatfield and Westhampton. The revival colonials, which make up most of this list, went up between the nineteen twenties and the nineteen sixties in Florence, Leeds and the streets above Smith College. Lot sizes and condition vary more than the label suggests. Five College Realtors can sort the two apart before you visit.

Frequently Asked Questions

How old are these houses?

Anywhere from the seventeen hundreds to the mid twentieth century. The style field marks the form, not the period, so year built is the thing to read on each listing.

Do historic rules apply?

Parts of Northampton sit in local historic districts and some individual properties carry preservation restrictions, so exterior work may need review. It varies street by street.

What should be checked on an early house?

Sill and frame condition, chimney and roof, knob and tube wiring, heating capacity in rooms with original windows, insulation, and any restriction recorded against the deed.
