What Millbury homes need
Millbury, along the Blackstone River, has older mill-era homes and two-families near the town center and newer subdivisions toward Route 146.
Millbury grew around mills on the Blackstone River, with the village of Bramanville and the neighborhoods near Singletary Lake each adding their own housing styles. Older mill-era homes near the center and lake cottages converted to year-round homes often need the most insulation work.
Worcester County is the largest county in Massachusetts by area, and it spans hill towns, mill villages and fast-growing suburbs, so housing ages and heating fuels vary a lot from town to town.
