Affordable Homes in Newbury - Info Session Wednesday October 8, 6pm

The Town of Newbury invites you to an Information Session about a first-time home-buyer lottery for new single family homes at The Village at Cricket Lane. 

The meeting will be held at the Newbury Select Board Hearing Room, 2nd Floor, 12 Kent Way, Byfield MA at 6:00 pm on October 8th, 2025.

The lottery for affordable, deed-restricted homes is being conducted in two phases. Phase I offers the availability of two 3-bedroom homes. In Phase II, three more 3-bedrooms and one 4-bedroom home will be available.

This new development of 24 single family homes is located off of Pearson Drive in Byfield. Cricket Lane is a condo community of single family homes, offering the best of both worlds, personal space with the ease of care such as snow removal, landscaping, irrigation & trash removal.

All homes are energy-efficient, all-electric homes complete with solar panels.

The lottery is being conducted by The Chelmsford Housing Authority. Please contact them at 978-256-7425 ext. 10 or via email at [email protected] for more information.
