Forest Square Condos for Sale

Forest Square is a small condominium community with only 20 units total. Turnover is limited by definition. When a unit comes to market here, it does not sit long. The combination of townhouse-style living, a below-town-median price point, and a Stamford address creates genuine buyer demand each time a unit changes hands. No active listings are verified at this time, but availability shifts quickly at small complexes like this one.

About Forest Square

Forest Square is a townhouse-style condominium community at 44 Pleasant Street in Stamford. The complex was built between 1989 and 2013, which means construction spanned multiple phases. That phase range is relevant: units built in the later phase may have different finishes, layouts, or mechanical systems than those built in the original phase. With only 20 units total, Forest Square is one of the smaller condominium communities in Stamford. Small complexes of this size tend to have a different ownership culture than large high-rises, often with fewer transient owners and a more stable resident base. The complex sits well below the Stamford-wide median sale price of $718,000 across all property types, making it one of the more accessible condominium entry points in the city.

Homes and Layouts at Forest Square

Forest Square offers one-, two-, and three-bedroom townhouse units. The MLS sales record confirms unit sizes ranging from 739 to 1,491 square feet, a spread of nearly 800 square feet within the same 20-unit community. That variation is wider than most buyers expect. A 739-square-foot one-bedroom and a 1,491-square-foot two-bedroom are not comparable units even if they share a building address. The townhouse configuration means vertical living: multi-floor layouts with private entry, as opposed to flat-style condominiums accessed from a shared interior corridor. Buyers who prioritize separation from neighbors tend to prefer the townhouse format for exactly this reason. Specific parking arrangements, outdoor space, and storage allocation should be confirmed with the listing agent, as these details vary by unit position within the complex.

What Buyers Need to Know

The base HOA fee is listed at $280 per month, but the sales table shows monthly fees ranging from $187 to $386 across recorded transactions. That range reflects either unit-size variation, fee adjustments over time, or both. Before making an offer, confirm the current HOA fee for the specific unit, not the complex average. Obtain the most recent budget, reserve fund study, and meeting minutes. A 20-unit association has a thin financial base, which means a single large capital expense, whether a roof, foundation repair, or shared system replacement, can trigger a meaningful special assessment across a small group of owners.

Property taxes vary significantly by unit. Recorded annual taxes in the sales history range from $3,587 to $8,625. The spread is wide enough that two units in the same complex can carry very different annual carrying costs. Verify the current assessed value and tax bill for the specific unit before calculating your total monthly cost of ownership.

For a complex with a construction window spanning 1989 to 2013, buyers should ask directly which phase a given unit was built in and what, if any, system or structural differences exist between phases. Renovation variation between units is also worth examining. In a complex this size, some units may have been updated extensively while others remain largely original. That affects both value and what buyers are actually purchasing.

Confirm rental restrictions, pet policy, and owner-occupancy ratio before closing. These factors affect both your ability to use the unit flexibly and the financing options available to you. Many lenders apply different underwriting standards to associations below a certain owner-occupancy threshold. Resale considerations are also tied to these rules: a complex with a high investor-owner ratio may face lender restrictions that complicate future buyers’ financing and compress resale value over time. Request the full resale package, including the association’s current financial statements and any pending litigation, before removing contingencies.

Buying or Selling at Forest Square

Pricing a unit at Forest Square requires careful analysis. Eleven sales over an extended period in a 20-unit building means comps are thin, and no two units in this complex have sold under identical conditions. Unit 9 traded at nearly $496 per square foot in late 2024 while Unit 27 sold at roughly $340 per square foot in 2022. The difference is not just timing. It reflects size, floor plan, condition, and specific unit position within the complex. Applying a simple price-per-square-foot average to any given listing here would produce an unreliable number.

The Engel Team tracks individual unit history, HOA financial health, and off-market activity across the Stamford CT real estate market. If you are considering buying at Forest Square, the right move is a valuation based on the specific unit, not the complex average. If you own a unit here and are thinking about selling, the 2025 and 2026 sales data indicates the market for well-presented two-bedroom units has moved sharply upward. Getting pricing right at the first list is especially important in a 20-unit building where one overpriced listing can stall interest for months.
