Greenbriar Condos in Stamford, CT

Greenbriar Condos for Sale

Greenbriar is a 27-unit complex. At that scale, turnover is slow by definition. Most years see one or two sales, occasionally three. When a unit comes to market here, it does not sit. The two-bedroom townhouses priced near the current market have closed within weeks in recent cycles. If you are tracking Stamford CT condos in this price range, waiting for a Greenbriar listing to appear on Zillow before calling is not a strategy. Units are often spoken for before they surface publicly. Contact The Engel Team directly to get ahead of available inventory.

Recently Sold at Greenbriar

MLS records show 16 closed sales at Greenbriar. Prices have ranged from $350,000 to $620,000, with a median of $430,500. That median, however, is pulled down by a single 1-bedroom sale in 2024 at $350,000. Strip out the 1-bedroom outlier and the 2-bedroom townhouses have traded between $388,000 and $620,000 over the recorded history, with the most recent sales showing a clear upward move. The three closings in 2025 came in at $585,000, $610,000, and $620,000, all for 2-bedroom, 3-bath units with 1,561 to 1,571 square feet. That puts the current effective price per square foot for 2-bedroom units at roughly $375 to $395, well above the historical MLS median of $278 per square foot across all recorded sales. The market for these units has repriced meaningfully in the last two years.

About Greenbriar

Greenbriar is a contemporary condominium community at 1900 Summer Street in Stamford, CT, built in 1986 and containing 27 townhouse-style units. The location puts residents close to downtown Stamford, with shopping and services within a short walk or drive. Summer Street is a well-traveled corridor in Stamford, which means convenience is built into the address. At 27 units, this is a small association. Decisions move quickly, the community is tight, and the building’s trajectory – financially and physically – depends on a small group of owners. That is not a negative. It is a fact buyers should factor in before purchase. For buyers comparing options across Stamford CT real estate, Greenbriar’s scale and townhouse format set it apart from the larger flat-style condominiums that dominate the downtown core.

Homes and Layouts at Greenbriar

Greenbriar offers 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom units in a townhouse configuration. The 2-bedroom units run 1,561 to 1,571 square feet, with 3 bathrooms, and represent the overwhelming majority of sales activity in the MLS record. The single 1-bedroom unit that traded in 2024 came in at 834 square feet with 1 bathroom. The townhouse layout means entry at ground level, living space spread across multiple floors, and more separation from neighbors than a flat-style building provides. Parking is available in the complex, consistent with the townhouse format. The complex also includes a park area. Buyers should confirm whether individual units include assigned garage parking or surface spaces, as this can vary between units built in 1986 and updated at different points since.

What Buyers Need to Know

HOA fees at Greenbriar have risen over time, as they have across most Stamford associations built in the 1980s. Early sales show fees at $363/month. Recent 2025 closings reflect fees of $434 to $435/month, a roughly 20 percent increase from the baseline. Buyers should request the current fee schedule, the association budget, and the reserve fund study before making an offer. A 27-unit association has limited margin for underfunded reserves. If a major capital item, such as a roof, siding, or common area drainage, requires attention, the per-unit assessment exposure is significant. Ask specifically about any open or anticipated special assessments and the association’s insurance coverage structure.

Property taxes on 2-bedroom units have ranged from $6,462 to $7,523 across the sales record, with most recent closings landing around $7,092 to $7,129 per year. The 1-bedroom unit taxed at $3,371 annually, reflecting its smaller footprint. Buyers should confirm the current mill rate and request the assessed value for any specific unit before closing, as renovation work done by prior owners can affect assessed value at resale.

Renovation variation between units is worth examining carefully in a building this age. Units that have been updated since 1986 will differ significantly from those in original condition. Kitchens, baths, flooring, windows, and HVAC systems are the key variables. Do not assume a recently sold comparable unit matches the condition of the unit you are considering. Request a full disclosure and, when possible, a pre-inspection before going under contract.

Resale potential at Greenbriar is supported by the 2025 pricing trajectory, with three sales clearing $585,000 to $620,000. However, resale comps are thin by nature in a 27-unit complex, which means pricing any individual unit requires careful interpretation of the limited sales record. A buyer who overpays relative to condition and current demand will have limited comp support to recover that premium on a future sale. Review the resale package carefully, including any right of first refusal, transfer fee, or association approval process that could affect your ability to sell on your own timeline.

Rental restrictions and owner-occupancy ratios should be confirmed directly with the association. These rules affect both the day-to-day character of the complex and the financing options available to buyers using conventional loans. For buyers financing with a conventional mortgage, lender approval of the association’s financials and owner-occupancy ratio is required and should be initiated early in the process.

Buying or Selling at Greenbriar

If you are buying at Greenbriar, the recent price movement is real. The three 2025 closings represent a 15 to 22 percent increase over 2021 and 2022 comps for the same floor plan. That trajectory does not guarantee the next unit trades at $640,000, but it does mean the market has moved and buyers who try to anchor to 2020 pricing will not be competitive. Get your financing and association review started in parallel, not sequentially.

If you own at Greenbriar and are thinking about selling, the 2025 data gives you real leverage. Unit 13 closed at $620,000 in December 2025. That is the high watermark in the recorded history of this complex. Pricing the next unit at or near that level requires condition to match. Staged, updated units with garage parking and outdoor space will outperform. Units in deferred condition will not hit that number regardless of the asking price.
