126 Central Street #1

Listings have been creeping over the $1M mark in Somerville, and the trend isn't showing any sign of slowing any time soon.

But, take heart, there is a huge stock of homes in the six-figure range that aim to please even the most discerning buyer.

In fact, there are so many homes listed for sale in Somerville in that range that we had trouble narrowing it to 12 open houses this weekend worth seeing.

From Victorians to new construction and even single-family homes, we got you covered. You're welcome.
