NATICK

Median home price: $440,000

One-year change: +5%

Natick remains one of the few affordable towns within the swanky Wayland-Wellesley-Weston cluster. Beyond the massive mall, attractions include a cute town common, a brand-new high school with waterfront views and a public preschool right on the grounds, a commuter- rail stop, and Mass. Pike adjacency. Despite easy highway access, much of the town feels unspoiled: There are numerous ponds, the Henry S. Hunnewell Town Forest, and Lookout Farm (among the country’s oldest). Homes frequently arrive on the market in the $400s. Choice neighborhoods include Wethersfield, with its postwar ranches, and MacArthur Road, close to the Wellesley line. On the Framingham side, look at Sherwood, dotted with three-bedroom Colonials. Spacious lots are found in woodsy South Natick, off Cottage Street.
