Recently Sold at Palmer Landing
MLS records show 65 closed sales at Palmer Landing, with prices ranging from $475,000 to $1,200,000 for residential units. The median sale price across that history is $637,500, and the median price per square foot is approximately $384. Unit sizes in the recorded sales run from 1,355 to 2,172 square feet for the two- and three-bedroom layouts.
The 2025 sales are the most instructive benchmark. Five units closed in 2025 at prices between $775,000 and $1,200,000. Both two-bedroom units sold at $803,000. Three-bedroom units moved between $995,000 and $1,200,000. The $1,200,000 close on APT 403 in July 2025 represents the highest recorded sale price in the building’s MLS history. That number is not an outlier — APT 103 closed at $1,080,000 in January 2025, and APT 203 closed at $995,000 in May. The three-bedroom floor plan at 2,172 square feet is clearly where the pricing ceiling lives.
For context, two-bedroom units at 1,489–1,525 square feet are trading in the $775,000–$803,000 range in 2025. The smaller two-bedroom layout at 1,355 square feet has historically priced lower, with the most recent comparable sale at $637,500 in mid-2024. Current ask prices will likely reflect the 2025 benchmark closings rather than that earlier data point.

About Palmer Landing
Palmer Landing is a gated waterfront condominium community built between 1984 and 1985 on Stamford’s Harbor. The complex holds 75 units across a townhouse-style configuration. The gated setting, water views, and direct access to Stamford’s waterfront distinguish it from the newer high-rise condominium towers that have come up in the Harbor Point district. This is an established community, not a recently converted property, and the ownership base reflects that — most buyers here are looking for long-term residence, not a short-term hold.
The location is practical as well as scenic. The Stamford Railroad Station is close, making Metro-North access straightforward. Grand Central Terminal is under an hour by express train. Beach Park is accessible to Stamford residents with a resident sticker, which means free parking and direct waterfront access without paying for a private beach club. For a condominium community, that is a meaningful amenity.
Homes and Layouts at Palmer Landing
Palmer Landing offers studio, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom floor plans in a townhouse-style building. The MLS sales record shows three primary residential configurations: a two-bedroom/two-bath layout at approximately 1,406 square feet, a two-bedroom/three-bath layout at 1,355–1,525 square feet, and a three-bedroom/three-bath layout at 2,029–2,172 square feet. The townhouse style means vertical living — units typically span multiple floors rather than a single flat plan, which gives residents separation between living and sleeping areas that you do not get in a standard mid-rise condominium.
The range of square footage within the same bedroom count reflects meaningful layout differences. A 1,355-square-foot two-bedroom and a 1,525-square-foot two-bedroom are different products at this price point. Buyers should review floor plans carefully before comparing list prices. The community also includes a pool and clubhouse on site. Parking is consistent with a gated community structure, though buyers should confirm assigned versus deeded parking in the specific unit’s condo documents.
What Buyers Need to Know
HOA fees at Palmer Landing currently run approximately $950–$1,000 per month for the actively traded units, up from the $825/month range recorded in earlier sales. That increase over time is normal for a 40-year-old building, and buyers should verify the current fee, reserve fund balance, and any pending special assessments directly from the association before making an offer.
Because Palmer Landing is a waterfront property built in the mid-1980s, flood zone status and insurance structure are material due diligence items. Buyers should confirm which flood zone the building sits in, whether the association carries flood insurance on the structure, and what individual unit owners are responsible for at the policy level. These answers affect both monthly carrying costs and financing options. Some lenders will require flood insurance on condominiums in designated flood zones regardless of how infrequently the area has flooded.
Building systems in a community built in 1984–1985 will vary by unit depending on how aggressively individual owners have renovated. HVAC, in-unit plumbing, and finishes will not be uniform across all 75 units. Buyers comparing two units at similar prices should account for capital already spent versus capital that will be required after closing. Request the full resale package, which should include meeting minutes, the reserve study, the current operating budget, and disclosure of any pending assessments. Resale potential at Palmer Landing is strong relative to other Stamford condominium options in this price band, but only if the unit is in good condition and the association financials are clean.
Rental restrictions, pet policies, and owner-occupancy ratios are set by the Palmer Landing association and should be confirmed before finalizing any offer. These details affect both how you live there and how the building performs as an asset if your situation changes.
Buying or Selling at Palmer Landing
If you are buying at Palmer Landing, the 2025 sales data gives you a reliable pricing framework. Two-bedrooms are trading at $775,000–$803,000 for the larger layouts, and three-bedrooms are ranging from $995,000 to $1,200,000 depending on floor, condition, and view. Understanding where a specific unit sits within those bands requires reviewing the floor plan, renovation history, and HOA documents — not just the list price.
If you are selling, the 2025 benchmark closings are the comps that matter. Pricing a two-bedroom against 2023 or 2024 data will leave money on the table. The building has appreciated meaningfully, and the right pricing strategy captures that without chasing a number the market will not support.
