Bywatyr Bridgeport CT

Opening Overview

Bywatyr is a 23-unit gated townhouse condominium community in Bridgeport, CT, built in 1987. The practical fact that matters most here: verified MLS sales have closed between $345,000 and $374,500, with a median around $355,000 and a price per square foot of approximately $202. That positions Bywatyr at a meaningful premium to the Bridgeport-wide median of $387,000 across all property types, with units in the 1,735 to 1,769 square-foot range trading well above what smaller or less structured condominiums in the city command. With only 23 units in the complex, turnover is limited and sales are infrequent. Buyers who find availability here should treat it seriously.

Bywatyr Condos for Sale

Active inventory at Bywatyr is limited by design. A 23-unit gated community does not produce consistent turnover. Owners tend to stay, and when units do come to market, they do not linger. The MLS record shows only three closed sales over several years, which gives you a clear picture of how rarely these units change hands. If you are tracking Bridgeport CT condos and Bywatyr is on your list, the right move is to get ahead of availability rather than wait for an active listing to appear. Contact The Engel Team directly to monitor for off-market activity and upcoming listings before they hit the open market.

The most recent sale closed in September 2021 at $374,500, which is the high-water mark in the recorded dataset. The January 2021 sale at $345,000 represents the low end.

The table below reflects all verified MLS sales on record for Bywatyr:

Unit Date Price Bed/Bath SqFt HOA/mo Tax/yr
60 09/17/2021 $374,500 2/3 1,769 $320 $9,822
01/19/2021 $345,000 2/3 1,735 $304 $10,788
12/06/2018 $355,000 2/3 1,761 $291 $12,190

Three sales over a multi-year span is a thin comp set. That makes precise pricing harder and professional guidance more important. A buyer or seller here needs to understand exactly what drove the spread between $345,000 and $374,500 before committing to a price. Unit condition, renovation level, and floor position all matter when comps are scarce.

About Bywatyr

Bywatyr is a gated condominium community of 23 townhouse-style units located at 60 Bywatyr in Bridgeport, CT. The complex was built in 1987, which puts it in a generation of construction that predates the shift toward larger open-plan layouts. The gated setting distinguishes Bywatyr from the majority of Bridgeport condominiums, which are either converted multifamily buildings or open mid-rise developments without controlled access. That gate matters to a specific buyer: one who wants the ownership flexibility of a condominium with a layer of physical separation from the surrounding street environment. With only 23 units, the association is small and the community dynamic tends to be close-knit. For buyers exploring Bridgeport CT real estate, Bywatyr is one of the more structurally defined options in this price range.

Homes and Layouts at Bywatyr

All verified sales at Bywatyr show 2-bedroom, 3-bath units in the townhouse style. Square footage across sold units ranged from 1,735 to 1,769, which is a tight band that suggests consistent floor plans across the complex. The townhouse configuration means vertical living: multiple levels rather than a single-floor flat layout. That typically includes a ground-level entry, living and kitchen areas on the main floor, and bedrooms above. Three bathrooms across a 2-bedroom unit indicates at least one and a half baths on the upper floor and likely a half bath or full bath on the main level. Parking and any outdoor space specific to individual units should be confirmed with the listing agent or association documents, as those details vary by unit and are not uniformly documented in MLS records.

What Buyers Need to Know

HOA fees at Bywatyr have ranged from $291 to $320 per month across the three verified sales, with the current listed fee at $304 per month. That is a moderate fee for a gated townhouse community and covers standard community maintenance and association operating costs. What is not documented in the MLS record is what the fee specifically covers, whether reserves are adequately funded, and whether any special assessments have been levied or are anticipated. For a building constructed in 1987, those questions are not optional. Roof systems, exterior cladding, and mechanical infrastructure in buildings of this age are typically approaching or past their original design life. Buyers must request the full reserve study and the last two to three years of meeting minutes before signing a purchase contract.

Property taxes shown in the MLS sales data ranged from $9,822 to $12,190 per year, with the most recent figures landing at $10,788. Tax figures in Bridgeport are subject to revaluation cycles, and the assessed value on a unit you purchase may differ from the tax figure shown on a prior sale. Verify the current mill rate and assessed value with Bridgeport’s assessor directly before calculating your carrying costs.

Because Bywatyr is a gated community, access and guest policies are controlled by the association. Buyers should review the declaration and bylaws for rental restrictions, owner-occupancy requirements, and pet policies before assuming these terms match their intended use. With only 23 units, any shift in owner-occupancy ratio affects the community meaningfully. If you plan to rent the unit, confirm that the association allows it and that the current owner-occupancy ratio does not create financing complications with your lender.

Unit condition at Bywatyr is likely to vary considerably. With sales spread across 2018 to 2021, some units have been updated and others have not. The $29,500 spread between the low and high sale in the verified dataset likely reflects condition differences as much as any other factor. Get a thorough inspection and compare finishes, mechanical systems, and any recent capital improvements against the asking price.

Buying or Selling at Bywatyr

Buyers tracking Bridgeport homes for sale who want a gated townhouse condominium in this price range have very few options. Bywatyr is one of them, and it does not produce listings on a predictable schedule. The right strategy is to establish a relationship with an agent who can monitor the complex for off-market activity and provide a precise valuation the moment a unit becomes available. Pricing here requires working from a thin comp set, which means relying on a broker who understands how to interpret limited data rather than one who pulls a median and calls it a price.

Sellers at Bywatyr face the same comp challenge. Three recorded sales over multiple years means your unit will be priced on nuance, not volume. Condition, recent updates, parking, and floor position all carry disproportionate weight when buyers have almost nothing else to compare. Presenting the unit correctly and pricing it precisely is the difference between a quick sale at full value and a listing that sits.
