The five highest-priced home sales reported in Boston North Suburbs, Massachusetts for the week ending November 1, 2026, totaled $13.348 million. Three of the homes are in Winchester, and the other two are in North Reading and Reading, all of them in Middlesex County.
Every one of the five is a single-family home, and together they cover more than a century of building, from a Colonial built in 1910 to a home finished this year. They include a Contemporary from the 1960s that has since been rebuilt.
No. 1 — $3,725,000 · 4 Wren Cir, North Reading, Massachusetts
The top sale of the week was a brick Colonial on a cul-de-sac in Ridgeway Estates in North Reading, where 4 Wren Circle sold for $3,725,000. Built in 1998, it sits on 10.60 acres of wooded, gently sloping land with a stream, the largest lot of the five. It is also the largest home of the group, with 11,297 square feet of living space, five bedrooms, eight baths and an oversized four-car garage with a workshop.
The home is really two residences in one. An addition from 2004 forms a self-contained wing with its own kitchen, living room and dining area, along with a primary bedroom that has a walk-in closet, a generous bath and a private balcony, suited to in-law or guest living. In the main home, a two-story foyer leads into living and dining rooms finished with custom millwork and hand-painted details, and the kitchen is built around a nine-foot island. The main family room has a stone fireplace, floor-to-ceiling windows and skylights. On the second level, the primary suite has two walk-in closets, a spa bath and a balcony, and a second family room has a gas fireplace. Home offices, an exercise room and a craft room round out the interior, and radiant heated floors run through both parts of the home.
Outside there is a heated in-ground pool, and the cabana has its own half bath. A stone patio and a fire pit give the grounds places to gather, and the yard is fenced and professionally landscaped. The property last sold for $750,000 in 1998.
The listing agents were Marina Tramontozzi of True North Realty and Kristine Pecora. Tianyu Zhou of StartPoint Realty represented the buyer.

Off the foyer, the main rooms show the home’s age most clearly. The butler’s pantry is original, down to its marble sink and cabinets. The dining room has kept many of its early details, with a fireplace and a big picture window, and the living room has a fireplace of its own. There are four fireplaces in all, including one in the primary bedroom. A study and a south-facing sunroom are on the first floor. Both the top floor and the partially finished basement have extra rooms that could become a second home office, a media room or a gym.
