STANFORD — The price pattern of July recorded real estate transfers in Stanford when only one property out of five sales closed for less than $500,000 is repeated when comparing homes that are currently available for sale in the town. Of the 20 single family homes publicly listed for sale on September 10th only one is offered under $500,000 and ten are over $1,000,000. There is no indication that the real estate market will improve for home buyers and the median price in Stanford of $640,000 continues to rise.

The amount of time it takes to sell a house has continued to fall and is now only 47 days.

The art of Marilyn Hock

Waterlily (8”x12”) made by Marilyn Hock

It takes a lot of courage to share your art for the first time and Marilyn Hock is taking that leap with her debut exhibition at Sharon Town Hall on Sept. 12. A realist painter with a deep love for wildlife, florals, and landscapes, Hock has spent the past few years immersed in watercolor, teaching herself, failing forward, and returning again and again to the page. This 18-piece collection is a testament to courage, practice and a genuine love for the craft.

“I always start with the eyes,” said Hock of her animal portraits. “That’s where the soul lives.” This attentiveness runs through her work, each piece rendered with care, clarity, and a respect for the subtle variations of color and light in the natural world.
