The five highest-priced home sales reported in Farmington Valley & West Hartford, Connecticut for the week ending October 25, 2026 came to a combined $5.27 million. Two of the homes are in West Hartford, two are in Avon and one is in Canton, and the group is made up entirely of Colonials and Cape Cods, ranging from a home built in 1919 to one built in 2006.
What sets the week apart is pace. Each of the five sold above its asking price, and each went under contract between three and six days after it was listed. Berkshire Hathaway NE Prop. agents were the listing agents on the homes ranked second through fifth.
