The Chandler Quadrangle is an area that contains about 800 single-family homes. In 2013, 30 of those homes changed hands. I've included two lists, sorted by price and by address, below, showing the particulars of each sale.  There are four homes for sale in the Chandler Quadrangle now (February 25, 2014). That's pretty low, suggesting correctly that properly prepared, properly priced homes are attracting willing and able buyers to this attractive and popular area. There are few properties for sale, and there are prepared buyers in the market, pre-approvals in hand, looking for the right property when it hits the market. 30 single-family homes sold in the Chandler Quadrangle in 2013 232 homes sold in all of Duxbury in 2013 if you'd like a list of all the Duxbury home sales in 2013, pleas...

Apple Hill Lane, Duxbury The Duxbury neighborhood of Apple Hill Lane is a cul-de-sac neighborhood on the west side of Duxbury, near the Chandler Elementary School.   In the past few years, homes in this neighborhood have sold for $495,000 to about $550,000. The Duxbury public schools start with Chandler Elementary School, then the Alden School, Duxbury Middle School and Duxbury High School. I lived here once, over ten years ago. It's really nice, quiet and friendly. It's surrounded by conservation land and edged with a big pond. Many of the residents are raising their families here, or have raised their children and still live here.I attach a 15-second video taken at the entrance to the cul-de-sac. The video's a bit blurry: you can't see that Apple Hill Lane is etched into the rock!    ...

The Tree of Knowledge monument, at a road intersection in Duxbury, commemorates the post riders meeting place in our town. Below what's legible, it says, "Duxbury Tricentenary 1937".  That is, the monument was erected on the occasion of Duxbury's 300th birthday, now more than 75 years ago.
