Clarmont Condos in Norwalk, CT

Clarmont Condos for Sale

Turnover at Clarmont is real but not constant. The MLS shows 29 recorded sales going back to 2015, which works out to roughly three or four transactions per year across 96 units. That pace means availability opens up, but rarely with much warning. Buyers who wait for a listing to sit are usually waiting too long. If you are tracking Norwalk CT condos in this price range, Clarmont is worth monitoring closely because units at this price point move. Contact The Engel Team directly to be notified when a unit comes available, including off-market situations where a seller has not yet listed publicly.

Recently Sold at Clarmont

The MLS shows 29 sales at Clarmont with closed prices ranging from $110,000 to $300,000. The median sale price across all recorded transactions is $160,000, though the most recent closings tell a different story. Unit APT 1A closed at $250,000 in July 2025. Unit APT 1B closed at $238,000 in February 2025. Both were 1-bedroom, 1-bath units in the 555–564 square foot range. That puts the current per-square-foot range for 1BR units at roughly $420–$450 on the most recent trades, well above the long-run MLS median of approximately $255/SF.

The 2-bedroom units, which run 870 square feet, have sold between $153,000 and $300,000 historically. The $300,000 sale in September 2023 was the highest recorded close in the dataset. At that price, a 2BR at Clarmont is priced at roughly $345/SF, which is still well below the broader Norwalk CT real estate market median of $660,000 across all property types.

The price trajectory here is meaningful. In 2015 and 2016, 1BR units were closing in the $110,000–$122,000 range. By 2022, those same unit types were regularly clearing $157,000–$180,000. The two 2025 closings at $238,000 and $250,000 represent a significant step up from even the 2022–2023 range. Buyers should not use the $160,000 historical median as a pricing anchor for what a unit costs today.

About Clarmont

Clarmont sits at 10 Clarmore Drive in Norwalk, CT. The complex spans 96 units and has a construction history that runs from 1947 through 1987, which means the buildings are not uniform in age or condition. That range matters when you are doing due diligence. Some sections are older mid-century construction; others were added or renovated decades later. Clarmont is organized as a ranch-style community, meaning units are generally single-story and spread across the property rather than stacked in a high-rise configuration. That layout gives the complex a lower-density feel than many condominium buildings in the area. For buyers looking at Norwalk homes for sale who want condominium ownership without a high-rise building experience, Clarmont’s footprint is one of the more practical options in this part of the city.

Homes and Layouts at Clarmont

Units at Clarmont come in 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom configurations. The 1BR units run between 548 and 564 square feet based on recorded MLS sales. The 2BR units are consistently listed at 870 square feet across all recorded transactions. Both unit types are 1-bath. There are no verified 2-bath units in the MLS sales history. The ranch-style building format suggests single-level living with no interior stairs, which is a practical advantage for certain buyers. Specific details on parking arrangements, storage, or private outdoor space are not available in the verified data and should be confirmed directly with the association or through a current listing.

What Buyers Need to Know

HOA fees at Clarmont have climbed steadily over the past decade. In 2015 and 2016, several sales recorded no HOA fee in the MLS data. By 2022, 1BR fees were running $355–$384/month. The two most recent 2025 closings show 1BR fees of $407 and $411/month. The 2BR units have historically carried fees in the $568–$603/month range. Before committing to a purchase, buyers should request the current fee schedule, the most recent reserve study, and the last two years of association meeting minutes. Clarmont’s construction history from 1947 to 1987 is a flag for building system age. Roofs, HVAC, plumbing, and common area infrastructure in the oldest sections may be approaching or past replacement cycles. Ask specifically about any pending or recently completed special assessments and how they were funded.

Property taxes across recent sales range from roughly $1,897 to $3,292 per year depending on the unit. The variation is real and worth confirming for the specific unit you are evaluating. Buyers should also verify the association’s insurance structure, specifically what the master policy covers versus what an individual unit owner must insure separately. In older complexes with a long construction span, master policy coverage can vary from section to section.

Resale value at Clarmont has moved consistently upward over the past decade, but the comp pool is thin. With roughly three to four sales per year in a 96-unit complex, pricing a unit accurately requires close attention to the most recent comparable sales rather than the long-run median. Any buyer who plans to resell within a few years should review the resale package requirements with the association before closing. Confirm whether there are right-of-first-refusal clauses, rental restrictions, or owner-occupancy ratio thresholds that could affect future marketability or financing eligibility.

One additional data point worth noting: Norwalk’s broader condo market saw median prices decline approximately 6.9% in the first half of 2025, with overall inventory down about 10.6% compared to the prior year. That context matters for Clarmont buyers. Tighter inventory supports prices at entry-level complexes, but a softening broader market means buyers have more negotiating leverage than they did in 2022 and 2023.

Buying or Selling at Clarmont

Clarmont is one of the more affordable condominium options in Norwalk, and the price trajectory since 2015 shows real appreciation. That said, pricing a specific unit correctly requires understanding which section of the complex it sits in, what condition the unit is in relative to recent sales, and where HOA fees currently stand. Two units with identical square footage can close at materially different prices based on condition and building age.

If you are buying, The Engel Team can help you identify when a unit becomes available, evaluate whether the asking price reflects the most current comparable sales, and flag due diligence issues specific to Clarmont’s construction history before you are under contract. If you are selling, accurate pricing is the difference between sitting and closing. The comp pool here is small enough that one overpriced listing can sit for months. John Engel and The Engel Team know this market and can provide a valuation grounded in what has actually closed, not what sellers hoped to get.
