Glen Arthur Estates Condos for Sale

Glen Arthur Estates does not turn over frequently. With only 36 units spread across a mix of townhouses and detached structures, availability at any given moment is limited. Across 13 recorded MLS transactions, sales have been scattered across multiple years, which tells you something about how long owners tend to stay once they are in. When a unit does come to market, it tends to move. Buyers watching this complex should not wait for an extended decision window. If you are looking at Stamford CT condos in this price range and style, Glen Arthur Estates warrants a close look the moment something opens up.

Recently Sold at Glen Arthur Estates

MLS data shows 13 recorded sales at Glen Arthur Estates. Closed prices ranged from $505,000 to $732,000, with a median sale price of $550,000 across the full history. Unit sizes ran from 1,300 to 2,378 square feet. Median price per square foot across verified sales was approximately $271/SF.

The two most recent closings tell the clearest story about where pricing has moved. Unit 36 closed in January 2026 at $732,000 for a 2-bed, 3-bath unit of 1,300 square feet, which is the top of the range and represents a significant premium relative to older sales at similar or larger sizes. Unit 34 closed in October 2025 at $691,000 for a 3-bed, 3-bath unit at 1,396 square feet. Both carried HOA fees of $300/month. The 2025 and 2026 closings indicate that price per square foot has risen sharply, with Unit 36 trading at over $560/SF, well above the historical median of $271/SF.

Earlier sales from 2021 and 2022 clustered between $530,000 and $570,000. Sales from 2019 and prior sat at $505,000 to $550,000, and the 2021 cluster reflects the acceleration that ran through the broader Fairfield County market during that period. Buyers using older comps should apply meaningful adjustments before drawing conclusions about current value.

About Glen Arthur Estates

Glen Arthur Estates sits at 596 Glenbrook Road in the Glenbrook section of Stamford. The complex was developed in phases between 1972 and 1994, which means construction standards, building systems, and interior finishes vary across the 36 units depending on when each structure was built. The colonial architectural character runs throughout: units feature Palladian windows, bay windows, and apex arch detailing that give the complex a more residential, house-like presence than a typical condominium building. The mix of townhouse and single family detached structures means the community reads more like a small neighborhood than a traditional condo complex, which is a large part of what distinguishes it from most Stamford CT real estate in this category. The Glenbrook Train Station is walkable from the address. Long Island Sound beaches are close. For buyers who want condominium ownership without the feel of living in a stacked building, Glen Arthur Estates is one of the more specific fits in this part of the city.

Homes and Layouts at Glen Arthur Estates

Units at Glen Arthur Estates range from approximately 1,300 to 2,378 square feet. The bedroom mix runs 2-bed and 3-bed configurations, with bath counts from 2 to 4 depending on the unit. Larger units in the 2,000-square-foot range have sold with 3 bedrooms and 3 or 4 baths, while some of the smaller 1,300-square-foot units are 2-bed, 3-bath configurations. The townhouse format means most units are vertical rather than single-level, with living areas on the main floor and bedrooms above. The detached single family structures within the community offer a distinct ownership experience with more privacy and separation from adjacent units. Garage parking is available at the complex. Outdoor space is part of the appeal here, consistent with a townhouse and detached structure format rather than a high-rise condominium. Buyers should confirm the specific layout, level count, and parking assignment for any unit before making assumptions based on square footage alone, since variation between structures is real and meaningful in a complex built across a 22-year span.

What Buyers Need to Know

HOA fees at Glen Arthur Estates currently run $300/month based on the most recent verified sales. Earlier transactions from 2021 and prior showed fees of $265/month. That increase is not large in absolute terms, but buyers should request a current fee schedule and a breakdown of what the monthly charge covers before closing. Annual property taxes across verified sales have ranged from $8,121 to $10,198, with most units landing between $8,300 and $9,200. The Stamford grand list assessment cycle affects individual unit taxes, so verify the current assessed value for any specific unit rather than relying on averages.

Because the complex was built in phases from 1972 to 1994, building systems, roofs, windows, and mechanical infrastructure are not uniform across units. Some structures are 50 years old. Reserve fund adequacy is a critical due diligence item here. Request the most recent reserve study and confirm whether reserves are funded at a level sufficient to cover major capital expenditures without triggering a special assessment. Ask specifically whether any special assessments have been levied in the past five years and whether any are currently planned or under discussion. Older buildings with phased construction histories and smaller associations of 36 units are precisely the situations where under-funded reserves create buyer exposure.

The complex’s location near water adds a layer of due diligence for flood zone status and insurance. Buyers should confirm FEMA flood zone designation for the specific unit being purchased and obtain a flood insurance quote before finalizing any offer. Waterfront-adjacent properties in Fairfield County vary considerably in flood zone classification even within a single complex, so a property-specific check is necessary rather than assuming the full community carries one designation.

Resale potential at Glen Arthur Estates has been positive over the recorded sales history, with prices moving from $505,000 in 2015 to $732,000 in early 2026. That trajectory is real, but the resale pool is thin: 13 sales over more than a decade in a 36-unit complex means individual unit condition, renovation quality, and HOA health all carry outsized weight at resale. A well-maintained unit with a clean reserve picture will price at the top of the range. A unit with deferred maintenance or an HOA with open questions will face buyer resistance. Request the full resale package, including current financials, meeting minutes from the past two years, and any pending litigation or insurance claims, before proceeding.

Rental policy and owner-occupancy ratio should be confirmed with the association directly. Smaller complexes with phased construction often have owner-occupancy restrictions that affect financing options, particularly for buyers pursuing conventional or FHA loan products.

Buying or Selling at Glen Arthur Estates

Pricing a unit at Glen Arthur Estates is not a straightforward comp exercise. Thirteen sales over more than ten years, a wide square footage range, phased construction, and a mix of townhouse and detached structures mean that condition and layout differences drive meaningful price variance between otherwise similar units. Sellers who price without accounting for those variables will either leave money on the table or sit on the market. Buyers who rely on the median without understanding the comp set will misjudge where a specific unit should land.

The Engel Team tracks sales at Glen Arthur Estates and can provide a current valuation grounded in the actual closed data rather than broad Stamford averages. For sellers, that means knowing exactly what your unit should command given its size, condition, and position within the complex. For buyers, it means understanding what the recent trajectory in 2025 and 2026 pricing actually reflects and whether a current ask is supported by the comp set.
