Like many cities and towns in Massachusetts, Pembroke has a long history that dates to more than 100 years prior to the American Revolution. Pembroke, founded in 1650, still shows its colonial connections through its architectural style found in many of the area's homes. In fact, many of the homes for sale in this city of 17,800 people feature the quaint colonial-style that home buyers find appealing. Along with colonial-style homes, however, houses built in ranch or farmhouse style can also be found in this Plymouth County city.
When you sign up for any of the Pembroke open house viewings, you will quickly discover that the homes for sale are expansive and typically set on spacious properties. The average home for sale in Pembroke offers three bedrooms, although some larger homes can have four or five bedrooms. It also is not uncommon to find homes that have more than 2000 square feet of space. The starting price for a Pembroke home begins at $177,000. Prices can go as high as $900,000, however. New home construction also continues in Pembroke. Newer homes typically sell for higher prices than older, historic homes.
