Riverside Walk Condos for Sale

Riverside Walk is a 10-unit condominium community. With only 10 homes in the building, turnover is infrequent by definition. When a unit comes available, it does not stay available long. The MLS records only seven sales across the building’s entire history, which tells you something real about how rarely owners leave. If you are tracking this address, the right move is to get ahead of the market, not react to it. Contact The Engel Team at Douglas Elliman to monitor availability, including any off-market activity, before a unit hits public listings.

One-bedroom units have traded between $310,000 and $328,000. Two-bedroom units have reached as high as $585,000, reflecting the meaningful size and value difference between the 1-bed and 2-bed configurations in this building.

Note that the most recent recorded sale, Unit 3 in May 2022, closed at $585,000 for a 2-bed, 2-bath unit at 1,057 square feet. That is $553 per square foot, meaningfully above the building’s historical median. Buyers pricing a current offer should account for market movement since 2022 and verify current comps with a broker who tracks Westport CT condos at the unit level.

About Riverside Walk

Riverside Walk is a small, purpose-built condominium community at 20 Cross Street in Westport, constructed in 2003. With 10 units total, it is one of the smallest condominium buildings in Westport, which is part of the appeal. The location is a genuine asset: the building sits near the Saugatuck River and within walking distance of the Saugatuck train station on the Metro-North New Haven Line. That combination, river views and a walkable train commute, is not something most Westport condominiums can claim. In a town where the median sale price across all property types is just over $2,000,000, Riverside Walk offers a lower entry point into a market with no shortage of demand.

Homes and Layouts at Riverside Walk

Riverside Walk offers 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom townhouse-style homes. The townhouse configuration means a vertical layout rather than a single-floor flat, which gives owners more separation between living and sleeping areas than a typical stacked condominium unit. Based on MLS records, 1-bedroom units range from approximately 595 to 657 square feet. Two-bedroom units range from approximately 1,057 to 1,182 square feet. The building includes an elevator. Parking and outdoor space details should be confirmed for each specific unit, as configuration can vary within a small building like this. The building was built in 2003, which places it in an era of solid construction and modern systems by Westport standards.

What Buyers Need to Know

HOA fees at Riverside Walk are $260 per month for 1-bedroom units and $355 per month for 2-bedroom units, based on verified MLS records. That is a manageable carrying cost by Westport condominium standards. Annual property taxes have ranged from approximately $3,188 to $5,465 depending on unit size and assessment year. Buyers should request the full condominium association budget, reserve fund balance, and any history of special assessments before making an offer. A 10-unit building concentrates financial responsibility across a small owner pool, which means the reserve fund size matters more here than it would in a larger complex.

Because Riverside Walk is located near the Saugatuck River, buyers should confirm the flood zone designation for the specific unit and obtain a flood insurance quote before going to contract. Flood zone status can affect both insurance cost and mortgage qualification, and it varies by exact elevation and lot position even within a small building. Ask the listing agent for the current FEMA flood zone map panel and any elevation certificates on file.

Rental rules, pet policy, and owner-occupancy ratio should all be confirmed directly with the association. In a building of 10 units, a high investor-to-owner ratio can affect both the community dynamic and mortgage availability through certain lenders. Renovation variation between units is worth noting as well: units built in 2003 may have seen one or more rounds of updates, and finish quality can differ significantly from unit to unit. Review the resale package carefully, including the association’s right of first refusal if applicable, before submitting an offer.

Buying or Selling at Riverside Walk

Pricing a unit at Riverside Walk is not straightforward. Seven total MLS sales over the building’s history is a thin comparable set, and the most recent sale is now a few years old. A buyer offering on a 1-bedroom unit today cannot simply apply the 2021 sale prices without accounting for what the Westport condominium market has done since then. A seller needs to understand where current buyer demand sits and how this building’s location, size, and HOA structure compare to other Westport homes for sale at a similar price point.

The Engel Team at Douglas Elliman tracks condo activity across Westport at the unit level. We can provide a current valuation for any Riverside Walk unit, monitor the building for off-market activity, and help buyers structure offers that reflect the building’s thin comp history without overpaying. If you own a unit here and are considering a sale, we can advise on timing, pricing strategy, and how to position the building’s walkable location and river views to the right buyer pool.
