Northwood Court Condos in Stamford, CT

Northwood Court Condos for Sale

With only 7 units total, Northwood Court does not turn over often. This is a small condominium community on Hope Street in the Springdale section of Stamford, and when a unit comes available, it tends to move. The most recent verified sale closed in February 2026 at $702,999 — a number that reflects how far pricing has moved at this address in the last decade. If you are watching this complex, passive monitoring is not enough.

Recently Sold at Northwood Court

MLS records show 5 confirmed sales at Northwood Court. Closed prices ranged from $312,000 to $702,999, with a median of $420,000 across all recorded transactions. Unit sizes ranged from 1,181 to 2,030 square feet, and the median price per square foot across the dataset was approximately $259. That figure is pulled down by older sales — the February 2026 close at $702,999 for a 2,030-square-foot, 3-bedroom/3-bath unit implies a price per square foot closer to $346, which is meaningfully different and more relevant to current buyers.

The gap between a 2016 sale at $312,000 and a 2026 close at nearly $703,000 on a comparably sized unit tells you something real about trajectory here. Buyers using older comps to anchor their offer will price themselves into a failed negotiation. The February 2026 sale is the only current market signal that matters.

About Northwood Court

Northwood Court is a small, 7-unit townhouse condominium community built in 1986 at 1230 Hope Street in Stamford’s Springdale neighborhood. The Springdale section sits in the middle ground between downtown Stamford and the quieter residential terrain of North Stamford — walkable enough to feel connected, but set back enough to avoid the density of the urban core. The Stamford Train Station is accessible without a car, which matters for buyers who commute. The Merritt Parkway is minutes away for those who drive. The proximity to Stamford Twin Rinks and the JCC — which includes a lap pool, fitness programs, and sports facilities within a 20-minute walk — gives this address practical daily-life infrastructure that many comparable complexes in the area cannot match. With only 7 units, Northwood Court is one of the smaller condominium communities in Stamford’s Springdale market, which creates both the appeal of a quiet, neighbor-familiar setting and the liquidity constraints that come with limited scale.

Homes and Layouts at Northwood Court

Units at Northwood Court are townhouse-style, meaning buyers get a vertical layout with separate floors rather than a flat single-level footprint. Verified sales show two primary configurations: 2-bedroom/2-bath units ranging from approximately 1,181 to 1,351 square feet, and 3-bedroom/3-bath units running from 2,025 to 2,030 square feet. The 3-bedroom units are meaningfully larger and have commanded the highest prices in every recorded sale cycle. Garage parking is available, which is not universal among Springdale-area condominiums of this era. The townhouse format typically means private entry, which buyers moving from single-family homes often find more comfortable than shared-lobby flats. Outdoor space specifics vary by unit — buyers should verify private patio or deck access during the inspection process rather than assuming it from building style alone.

What Buyers Need to Know

The HOA fee has ranged between $467 and $665 per month across verified sales, with the current baseline at approximately $566. That range across a small number of units likely reflects both assessment changes over time and possible unit-specific differences in fee structure — buyers should request the current fee schedule for the specific unit they are purchasing, not assume the average applies. Property taxes at the larger 3-bedroom units have run between $7,251 and $7,807 per year based on verified sales.

With only 7 units, reserve fund health is a critical due diligence item. Small associations have less margin for error — a single major repair to a shared system can result in a special assessment that hits every owner proportionally. Buyers should request at minimum two years of HOA meeting minutes, the current reserve study, and a copy of the association’s insurance policy before going firm. The building dates to 1986, which means major systems including roofing, exterior cladding, and mechanicals are in or approaching replacement cycles depending on what has been updated. Ask specifically what has been replaced and when.

Rental restrictions, pet policy, and owner-occupancy ratio are not publicly verified for this complex. These rules affect both your daily living experience and your ability to rent the unit if circumstances change. Request the full condominium documents — the declaration, bylaws, and rules — before signing a purchase agreement. Resale value at Northwood Court is directly affected by the association’s financial health, the owner-occupancy ratio (lenders typically require 50% or more for conventional financing), and the overall condition of shared elements. A resale package review with a Stamford-experienced attorney is standard practice and worth the cost at a small association like this one.

The complex is not waterfront, so flood zone and coastal insurance are not the primary concern here. The Hope Street location in Springdale does not place Northwood Court in a known high-risk flood zone, but buyers should confirm FEMA designation independently as part of standard due diligence on any Connecticut property.

Buying or Selling at Northwood Court

Seven units. Five recorded sales over a decade. This is a complex where pricing requires real judgment, not a quick automated estimate. The spread between the lowest and highest verified sale is nearly $400,000, and that range reflects genuine differences in unit size, configuration, condition, and market timing rather than noise. If you are buying, understanding which sale comp applies to the unit you are targeting is the difference between a fair offer and an overpay. If you are selling, the February 2026 close at $702,999 sets a new ceiling for the 3-bedroom units — but only if your unit is in comparable condition and the market holds.
