Highview Terrace Condos in Stamford, CT

Highview Terrace Condos for Sale

With only four units in the building, availability at Highview Terrace is genuinely rare. This is not a complex where listings rotate through every few months. When a unit comes to market here, it tends to move. Buyers monitoring Stamford CT condos for a small, low-density building should understand that Highview operates on its own timeline – not the broader market’s. No active listings are verified at the time of this writing. Contact The Engel Team directly to be notified when a unit becomes available, including any off-market opportunities that never reach the public MLS.

Recently Sold at Highview Terrace

MLS records show eight sales at Highview Terrace across the available history. Closed prices ranged from $250,000 to $715,000, with a median sale price of $445,000. Unit sizes ran from 930 to 4,100 square feet, and the median price per square foot came in at approximately $241. That is a wide spread – driven by the significant variation in unit size and configuration within a four-unit building. The most recent sale, Unit 2, closed in March 2026 at $715,000 for a 3-bed, 4-bath unit at 2,711 square feet, with an HOA of $350 per month and annual taxes of $9,426. That single sale resets the pricing benchmark for the building in a meaningful way.

One important note for buyers using these figures: with only eight recorded sales across nearly a decade, Highview Terrace’s comp set is thin. Each sale reflects specific unit size, condition, and renovation level. A 930-square-foot unit at $250,000 and a 4,100-square-foot unit at $505,000 are not measuring the same asset. Buyers should request the full history of each unit under consideration and verify current condition before drawing pricing conclusions from the table above.

About Highview Terrace

Highview Terrace is a four-unit condominium building at 179 Highview in Stamford, CT, built in 1976. At four units total, this is one of the smaller residential condominium buildings in the Stamford market. That scale is the defining characteristic. There are no long hallways, no elevator banks, no shared amenity floors crowded with strangers. The building reads more like a small residential cluster than a conventional condo complex, which is part of what keeps turnover low and pricing variable. The pool is the one shared amenity verified for the building. For buyers comparing this against larger Stamford CT real estate options, Highview Terrace offers a fundamentally different ownership experience – quieter, more private, and considerably less institutional.

Homes and Layouts at Highview Terrace

Unit configurations at Highview Terrace span a wider range than the building’s size might suggest. The MLS sales record documents units from 930 to 4,100 square feet, with bedroom counts ranging from two to four and bath counts ranging from two to four. The building is classified as townhouse-style with a mid-rise structure, meaning individual units likely occupy multiple floors rather than a single flat layout. That vertical configuration typically means private entry points, separation between living and sleeping levels, and in some cases private outdoor space – though buyers should confirm exactly what each specific unit includes before proceeding.

HOA fees on record have ranged from $200 to $350 per month across different units and sale dates, with the current posted figure at $288 per month. Annual property taxes have ranged from $3,323 to $9,426 depending on unit size and assessed value. The 2026 sale of Unit 2 – 2,711 square feet, 3 beds, 4 baths – carried taxes of $9,426, which is consistent with what that unit size would generate in Stamford’s tax base. Buyers should verify current tax assessment for any specific unit before making an offer.

What Buyers Need to Know

A four-unit building presents specific due diligence requirements that larger complexes do not. First, reserve fund health is a genuine concern. With only four units contributing to shared reserves, a single special assessment can be significant per-unit cost. Buyers should request the current reserve study, the balance of the reserve fund, and a five-year capital expenditure history before proceeding. Highview Terrace was built in 1976, which puts it at roughly 49 years old. Building systems – roof, mechanicals, plumbing stack, pool equipment – are all potential line items depending on maintenance history.

Second, owner-occupancy ratio matters for financing. With four units, a single investor-owned unit shifts the occupancy ratio substantially. Buyers using conventional financing should confirm the owner-occupancy rate meets lender requirements. FHA financing in small condo buildings requires separate FHA project approval, which many small buildings do not carry. Confirm this early, not at commitment.

Third, renovation variation between units is real. The sales table shows prices from $250,000 to $715,000 across units that are physically in the same building. That gap is driven largely by unit size, but condition and renovation level also factor in. A buyer purchasing a unit that last sold in 2017 at $292,000 should verify what, if anything, has been updated since. Resale value at Highview Terrace is strongly tied to unit-specific condition – not just the address.

HOA fee documentation, the master insurance policy, rental restrictions, pet policy, and the resale package should all be reviewed before contract. On a building this small, the governing documents are the entire operating structure. There is no professional management buffer. Buyers should read them carefully.

Buying or Selling at Highview Terrace

Pricing a unit at Highview Terrace correctly requires more judgment than a standard comp pull. Eight sales over nearly a decade, with unit sizes ranging from 930 to 4,100 square feet, do not produce a clean price-per-square-foot benchmark. The March 2026 sale at $715,000 is the most relevant data point for larger units, but it should not be applied directly to a 1,100-square-foot unit without adjustment. This is exactly the kind of building where pricing errors – high or low – are easy to make without granular knowledge of what each unit has sold for and why.
