Located just outside Springfield, Southwick is situated in Hampden County and has 9500 residents. It was settled in 1770 and still has remnants of its original town square. It also has homes for sale that were built right around the time that the town was settled and formally founded. These historic homes join more modern houses on Southwick's housing market. You can take a look at both newer and older homes by going to the open houses held regularly here.
The homes that were built in the early to mid-18th century still feature their original design and construction. They are made in the colonial-style that was so prevalent in those days right before the country declared its independence. An original 18th century home in Southwick will cost you around $380,000. That price buys you four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, as well as 3500 square feet of living space divided between two floors. Newer homes are also expansive and offer more than 2000 square feet of space. These homes sell for around $289,000 and higher.
