Fillow Ridge Condos for Sale
Fillow Ridge turns over at a measured pace for a complex of 88 units. Based on MLS history, the complex has recorded 50 sales over roughly a decade, which works out to fewer than five transactions per year on average. That is not a high-churn building. When a unit does hit the market, it tends to move. Norwalk CT condos at this price point have attracted steady demand from first-time buyers and downsizers, and Fillow Ridge sits squarely in the range where that demand is most active. If you are watching for availability, contact The Engel Team directly. Active listings change quickly and off-market awareness matters in a building that does not list frequently.
Recently Sold at Fillow Ridge
The MLS shows 50 recorded sales at Fillow Ridge. Closed prices ranged from $162,000 in 2015 to $470,000 in April 2026, with a median of $282,500 across the full sales history. Price per square foot has averaged approximately $262/SF across all transactions.
The most recent sales tell a sharper story. In early 2026, Unit 78 closed at $470,000 for a 2-bed/2-bath at 1,448 square feet, while two one-bedroom units, APT 3 and APT 61, closed at $340,000 and $360,000 respectively, each at 780 square feet. In late 2025, APT 19 sold for $350,000, also a 780-square-foot one-bedroom. Earlier in 2025, APT 56, a 2-bed/2-bath at 1,448 square feet, closed at $445,000.
The trajectory here is clear. In 2019 and 2020, one-bedroom units at 780 square feet were trading in the low-to-mid $200,000s. By 2025 and 2026, those same floor plans are closing at $340,000–$360,000. Two-bedroom units that were selling for $268,000–$285,000 in 2017 have reached $445,000–$470,000 in the current cycle. That is meaningful appreciation for a mid-1980s condominium in a market where Norwalk CT real estate overall has seen its median pulled toward $660,000 by single-family sales.
The larger end-unit configurations, units 84, 86, and 88, have floor plans ranging from 1,982 to 2,016 square feet and have closed between $319,000 and $435,000 depending on year and condition. Those layouts are the exception in this building, not the rule, and they command a premium on a per-unit basis when they appear.
About Fillow Ridge
Fillow Ridge is a townhouse-style condominium community at 115 Fillow Street in Norwalk, CT, constructed between 1986 and 1989. The complex contains 88 units spread across a community-style setting. The building era is typical of late-1980s Norwalk residential development, when townhouse condominium communities were built across the city’s interior neighborhoods to serve buyers priced out of single-family inventory. Fillow Street sits in a residential corridor of Norwalk, separate from the waterfront neighborhoods like Rowayton and outside the denser downtown core. For buyers looking at Norwalk homes for sale, Fillow Ridge represents one of the more affordable condominium entry points in the city without the flood-zone exposure that comes with coastal complexes.
Homes and Layouts at Fillow Ridge
Fillow Ridge offers two primary layout types. The one-bedroom, one-bath units come in at 780 square feet. The two-bedroom, two-bath units range from 1,448 to 1,460 square feet in the standard configuration. A small number of larger end units reach 1,982 to 2,016 square feet, also in a two-bedroom, two-bath format. The townhouse style means buyers are living vertically, with living space typically on the main level and bedrooms above. That layout suits buyers who want some separation between living and sleeping areas without the maintenance burden of a full house. The square-footage spread, from 780 to just over 2,000, gives the building enough variety that both first-time buyers and those downsizing from larger homes have realistic options here, depending on what comes available.
What Buyers Need to Know
HOA fees at Fillow Ridge vary by unit size. One-bedroom units have carried HOA fees in the range of $193–$203/month in recent sales. Two-bedroom units in the 1,448-square-foot range have run approximately $363–$385/month, and the larger end units have reached $399–$409/month. These figures come from MLS records and individual unit data, so buyers should confirm the current fee with the association directly before making an offer. Fees in late-1980s complexes can shift with capital needs, and a building of this age warrants a close look at reserve fund status and whether any special assessments have been levied or are under discussion.
Property taxes range considerably by unit. One-bedroom units have carried tax bills between roughly $3,434 and $4,596 per year. Two-bedroom units have ranged from approximately $4,073 to $6,082 depending on the unit and assessment year. Buyers should pull the current tax card for the specific unit rather than relying on a neighboring sale.
For a building constructed between 1986 and 1989, mechanical systems, roofing, and common-area infrastructure are at the age where capital expenditures are not hypothetical. Before closing, buyers should request the current reserve study, the most recent two years of meeting minutes, and a clear statement of any pending or recently completed assessments. A condominium resale package from the association is standard in Connecticut and should be reviewed carefully for budget health and any litigation history. Resale value at Fillow Ridge has held up well in recent cycles, but unit condition varies significantly across a 35-year-old building, and renovation level will drive pricing more than floor plan alone at this complex.
Rental rules, pet policies, and owner-occupancy ratios are not publicly disclosed in MLS data and must be confirmed directly with the association. These factors matter for financing as well. Certain loan programs have restrictions tied to investor concentration, and buyers using conventional or FHA financing should verify the owner-occupancy rate before proceeding.
Fillow Ridge does not carry the flood-zone risk associated with Norwalk’s coastal complexes, which simplifies the insurance picture for buyers. Standard homeowner’s insurance for the interior, combined with the master policy carried by the association for the building envelope, is the typical structure for a complex like this. Buyers should confirm exactly what the master policy covers and whether walls-in coverage is required separately.
Buying or Selling at Fillow Ridge
Pricing a unit at Fillow Ridge requires granular analysis. The spread between a 780-square-foot one-bedroom and a 2,016-square-foot end unit is substantial, and condition and renovation level have driven meaningful variance between comparable floor plans over the past few years. A seller who has updated kitchen and bath finishes is not competing on the same terms as one selling original 1989 condition. Getting that distinction priced correctly at the time of listing is the difference between a clean sale and a price reduction.
For buyers, the key question is whether a unit priced above $400,000 in this building is justified by its specific condition, layout, and position, or whether it is riding the recent high-end comps without the renovations to back it up. The Engel Team works with buyers at Fillow Ridge on comp-by-comp analysis and can monitor for new listings, including units that may move before formal listing. For sellers, John Engel and The Engel Team provide current valuation grounded in the actual MLS record for this complex, not generalized Norwalk market data. Reach out directly to discuss next steps.
