Marble Farm Condominiums is an age-restricted 55+ development of 24 units built in 2008. Six of the units are affordable and restricted to buyers earning 80% or less of the area median income (AMI). The development is located right off of Rte. 27, and just a mile from downtown Maynard, which features the public library, a movie theater, abundant restaurants and shopping. 

This affordable and spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bath condominium contains 1,846 square feet of living space on two levels. The first floor includes a large open concept space for living and dining, a kitchen, one bedroom, and one full bath. A second bedroom and full bathroom are on the second floor. The unit features hardwood flooring throughout, vinyl tile in the bathrooms, a driveway and one-car garage, a back deck, and front porch. The heating system is gas with forced air and is covered in the condominium association fee. The condo is being sold ‘as-is’ with refrigerator, stove, microwave, dishwasher, garbage disposal and washer/dryer included. 

The purchase price is $263,876. Owners are required also to pay property taxes, and the 2025 Maynard tax rate is $17.83 per $1,000 of valuation or an estimated monthly amount of $392. The condominium fee is currently $236 per month, and the Condominium Association has rules and regulations for all owners that describe the operation of the condominium.

The property is being offered at a discounted rate and, as such, this and all future sales of the property will be in accordance with the guidelines in the Deed Rider that is attached to the unit. The deed restriction will protect the property in perpetuity using resale price limitations. This unit will be sold to eligible 55+ age qualified buyers selected by lottery.
