SOLD and Accepted Offers in Fairfield Downtown and Westport Greens Farms, July 2021

Looking at July… Although the town-wide sales pace slows a bit, the local housing markets continued with strong sales and accepted offers in both Downtown Fairfield and Greens Farms Westport in July.

The average market time of the newly accepted offers was faster in Downtown Fairfield, at 32 days compared to 41 in the later half of June. But market time was a bit slower in Greens Farms with 54 average days compared to 37 in the last two weeks of June. Many of the sales continued to close at or above the asking price.

If you are like many others who want to sell but are still on the fence, August will continue to offer an excellent window of time to make your move before kids go back to school despite people taking vacations here and there. Interest rates and inventory are still low, and buyer demand is still strong. Rates are expected to creep up toward the end of the summer! You are right to arm yourself with an expert guide to help you put your strategy in place to reach your goal! Call me today to discuss your plans, (203) 912-4440.

“Water Craft” on the Market at 1690 Fairfield Beach Road!

Commanding a premium location on the road with a coveted dock at the ready, this home will make your dreams come true. Enjoy the blissful existence of waterfront living whether you’re in the water, on a vessel or just taking in the sea breezes! No matter which direction you gaze, awe-inspiring beauty will make your spirits soar, as you have found a true work of art on the water.
Re-imagined in 1993, this home was featured on the cover of book, “Designing with Glass – The Creative Touch” for its soaring ceilings and walls of glass capturing breathtaking water vistas that extend into the clouds.

The cunning design strategy arranges this home ‘right side up’ ensuring the main living spaces are guaranteed the most phenomenal views. Changing tides, a winding waterway, and spectacular sunsets are always on display from the architectural windows and the upper deck. The open-concept space puts the kitchen at the bow featuring a built-in bench, limestone counters, stainless appliances, and of course, an island.

The open dining and living areas in a great room with a fireplace and two fans hanging from the vaulted ceiling complete this space.

The chic master bedroom likewise captures dynamic views of vessels cruising Pine Creek from the lower deck. At high tide, you feel like you’re looking out to sea from your penthouse cabin on the ultimate cruise ship. A guest bedroom, third bedroom or office, elegant hall bath, and laundry complete the garden level. Seaside gardens with a romantic pergola, climbing hydrangeas, flowering crab apple, and roses present themselves at the entrance to this exceptional property and maintain your gaze as you enter the glass-walled foyer.


The home blends natural materials like seabed fossil stone and ultra wide-plank wood floors with high tech surfaces like the UV wind-resistant windows. It marries an antique front door with contemporary architecture.  And it resides on prime waterfront in a vibrant town rich in culture, arts, and history.  Chic eateries, universities, train stations, beaches, and even a SportPlex, are all a few minutes from here and just an hour from Manhattan.  Welcome to Water Craft, your dream come true!
