Harbor House Condos for Sale

Harbor House does not generate a high volume of listings in any given year. With 63 total units and a location on the East Branch inlet of Shippan Point, the complex holds its residents longer than most Stamford condominium buildings. Buyers who want to be here tend to wait. When a unit does come to market, it rarely sits. If you are tracking availability at Harbor House, the most reliable approach is to set up an alert and move quickly when something surfaces. Contact The Engel Team directly for current inventory, including any units that may be positioned to list before they appear on MLS. You can also browse the full Stamford CT condos inventory for comparable active listings while you wait.

Recently Sold at Harbor House

MLS data shows 35 verified sales at Harbor House. Closed prices ranged from $350,000 to $751,500, with a median sale price of $520,000. Unit sizes ranged from 860 to 1,720 square feet, and the median price per square foot came in at approximately $387.

The three most recent sales tell a clear story about where the market has moved. Unit 103, a 2-bed/2-bath at 1,180 square feet, closed at $751,500 in October 2025. Unit 312, a 2-bed/2-bath at 1,720 square feet, closed at $731,250 in July 2025. Unit 104, a 1-bed/2-bath at 1,005 square feet, closed at $584,500 in September 2025. These three transactions pushed well above the long-run median, reflecting both the waterfront location premium and how far pricing at this complex has moved since 2020, when comparable units were closing in the $350,000–$442,000 range.

The larger 1,720-square-foot floor plan has traded multiple times and consistently commands the top of the range, with closings at $639,000 in June 2022 and $560,000 in August 2018. The 1,435-square-foot layout has also been a reliable data point, with Unit 405 closing at $745,000 in June 2023 and $617,500 in August 2016. Price-per-square-foot on recent 2025 sales ranged from approximately $491 to $581, a meaningful step above the historical median and a useful baseline for buyers pricing offers today.

About Harbor House

Harbor House sits at 43 Harbor Drive on the East Branch inlet of Shippan Point, one of the more distinctly waterfront addresses in Stamford. The complex was built between 1981 and 1989 and contains 63 units across a mid-rise structure with elevator access. The Shippan Point location separates Harbor House from inland Stamford condominium buildings in a meaningful way. You are not getting a view of another building’s rooftop. You are getting water. That distinction drives both the buyer pool and the resale history here, which shows consistent price appreciation relative to non-waterfront Stamford condos at similar square footage. The complex’s location within Shippan Point also means buyers are looking at a quiet, residential peninsula rather than a downtown-adjacent setting, which is a deliberate trade-off, not a compromise.

Homes and Layouts at Harbor House

Harbor House offers 1-, 2-, and 3-bedroom units. Square footage in the MLS sales record ranges from 860 to 1,720 square feet, which is a meaningful spread for a 63-unit building. The 1,720-square-foot layout is the largest floor plan in the building and has sold multiple times, consistently attracting buyers who want the square footage of a small house without the maintenance. Mid-size 2-bed/2-bath units in the 1,040–1,180-square-foot range represent the most frequently traded configuration. One-bedroom units at roughly 860–1,110 square feet appear in the sales record as well, typically at the lower end of the price range. The building is elevator-served. Unit-specific features such as balconies, water views, and interior finishes vary by floor and position, and buyers should verify these details unit by unit rather than assuming uniformity across the building.

What Buyers Need to Know

HOA fees at Harbor House vary substantially by unit. The sales record shows monthly fees ranging from $487 to $1,152, with the larger floor plans carrying fees well above the building average. Budget accordingly if you are targeting the 1,435- or 1,720-square-foot layouts. Annual property taxes ranged from approximately $5,270 to $11,069 across verified sales. Before making an offer, request the full resale package, which should include the current reserve fund balance, any pending or recently completed special assessments, the most recent budget, and the master insurance policy.

Harbor House is a waterfront condominium on a tidal inlet, which means flood zone classification and insurance are not optional footnotes. Buyers should verify the specific flood zone designation for their target unit, confirm whether the association’s master policy includes flood coverage or whether a separate flood insurance policy is required, and understand what that premium looks like before closing. Units on lower floors will generally carry more flood exposure than upper-floor units, and this distinction matters for both insurance cost and resale positioning.

The building was constructed between 1981 and 1989, which puts it at 35 to 45 years old. At that age, buyers should ask direct questions about the condition of major building systems, including roof, elevators, HVAC infrastructure, and any waterproofing or seawall maintenance tied to the waterfront location. Ask whether there have been any special assessments in the last ten years and whether any are currently under discussion. A well-funded reserve minimizes the risk of a large per-unit assessment landing shortly after closing. Do not skip this review. Renovation quality also varies unit to unit in a building of this age. Some units have been substantially updated; others have not. Factor condition into your offer price rather than assuming all units at a given square footage are equivalent.

Rental rules, pet policies, and owner-occupancy ratios should all be confirmed through the resale package and HOA documents before committing. These details affect both your financing options and your future flexibility as an owner.

Buying or Selling at Harbor House

Harbor House is a low-turnover building with a strong waterfront location premium and a recent sales record that reflects real price movement. If you are buying, the 2025 closings set a new benchmark for this building, and pricing your offer against the 2020–2021 comps alone will leave you short. If you are selling, the same recent sales give you legitimate support for a number that would have looked aggressive two years ago.
