Single family residence sales reported in Chenango County for September 2026. Percentages compare the same period a year earlier. Figures come from the regional MLS feed and are refreshed monthly, so they lag the live market by a few weeks.
Norwich is the county seat and the employment center. Oxford, Greene, Bainbridge, and Sherburne are small villages strung along the river valleys, each with walkable centers and older homes that reward a good inspection.
Most of what sells here is land driven: hunting parcels, timber, tillable ground, and farmsteads. Those deals hinge on access, road frontage, and whether power is close enough to matter, which is exactly the diligence we run on every acreage purchase.
These are the population centers we work in most often across Chenango County. We list and show throughout the county, including the hamlets that never make a search filter. The highlighted ones have a page of their own.
