Silvermine Crossing is a 39-unit condominium community built in 1982 on Seir Hill in Norwalk, CT. Turnover is limited. With fewer than 40 units and a buyer pool that tends to hold for years, availability at any given moment is thin. The broader Norwalk CT real estate market saw inventory fall 10.6% to roughly 118 active listings in February 2025 compared to the prior year, which makes small complexes like Silvermine Crossing even harder to time. If you are waiting for the right unit to appear on the MLS, you may wait a while. Contact The Engel Team directly to monitor off-market availability and be notified the moment a unit becomes available.
MLS data shows five recorded sales at Silvermine Crossing. Closed prices ranged from $160,000 to $1,565,000, with a median sale price of $300,000. Unit sizes ran from 808 to 3,874 square feet. The median price per square foot across those transactions was approximately $274.
The most recent sale, Unit APT D4, closed in November 2024 at $300,000 for a 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit at 1,093 square feet, carrying an HOA of $400/month and annual taxes of $4,606. Unit F3 closed at $299,000 in January 2024 at 862 square feet with a $322/month HOA and taxes of $3,502. Unit G1 sold at $313,000 in June 2016 for a 2-bedroom, 2-bath at 1,305 square feet.
The outlier is Unit 3, a 4-bedroom, 4-bath property at 3,874 square feet that closed at $1,565,000 in April 2024 with a $600/month HOA and taxes of $18,540. That sale is an outlier by every measure and should not be used as a comp for the standard 1- and 2-bedroom units in the community.
With five total MLS sales spanning nearly a decade, the comp base is thin. Buyers should request a full resale history from the association and work with a broker who can pull broader Norwalk condominium comps to build a reliable pricing picture.

Silvermine Crossing sits at 3 Seir Hill in Norwalk, a location that puts residents close to the Merritt Parkway, I-95, and the Metro-North train station without dropping them into a dense urban setting. The complex was built in 1982 and contains 39 units organized in a townhouse-style ranch configuration, which gives it a lower-density, more residential feel than mid-rise condominium buildings found elsewhere in Norwalk.
One notable feature: residents of Silvermine carry beach rights as part of being Norwalk homeowners, giving them access to Norwalk’s shoreline amenities without living on the water directly. Retail, dining, and services along the Norwalk commercial corridors are within a short drive. For buyers looking at Norwalk homes for sale across different property types, Silvermine Crossing sits in a middle tier of the market, priced below Norwalk’s town-wide median of $660,000 for most standard units, while offering more outdoor space and privacy than flat-style condominium buildings.
Silvermine Crossing offers 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom units in a ranch-style townhouse format. Based on recent MLS sales, unit sizes for the standard condominium range from roughly 808 square feet on the lower end to 1,305 square feet for a 2-bedroom, 2-bath layout. The one large outlier unit at 3,874 square feet suggests the complex may include some expanded or combined configurations, though that unit is not representative of the standard inventory.
Parking is assigned. The townhouse building style typically means ground-level entry and a vertical interior layout, which offers more privacy and separation from neighboring units than a corridor-based mid-rise. A clubhouse is included in the community amenities. Buyers should confirm outdoor space, storage, and garage access unit by unit, as layouts and finish levels vary across a 40-year-old complex with different renovation histories.
HOA fees at Silvermine Crossing run approximately $391/month at the complex level, though recent sales data shows unit-level fees ranging from $322 to $600 per month. That variation suggests either different unit tiers, assessment periods, or fee adjustments over time. Before making an offer, confirm the current monthly fee for the specific unit, what it covers, and whether any special assessments are pending or have been levied in the past five years.
The building was constructed in 1982, which puts it in a category where reserve fund health and capital improvement history matter. Ask for the most recent reserve study and budget. Buildings of this era often face deferred maintenance on roofs, siding, mechanical systems, and common area infrastructure. If the reserve fund is underfunded relative to the study, a special assessment is more likely.
Renovation variation between units is significant here. A $160,000 sale and a $300,000 sale within the same complex for similar square footage signals real differences in condition and finish. Inspect carefully and price accordingly. Resale value at Silvermine Crossing will be driven more by individual unit condition and finish level than by the complex average.
The resale package, which typically includes the condominium declaration, bylaws, budget, reserve study, meeting minutes, and any pending litigation, is required reading before closing. Request it early. Norwalk’s market saw a 6.9% decline in median sale prices in the first half of 2025, with the bulk of that decline arriving in recent months. That context affects how you should approach offer pricing and negotiate seller concessions.
Rental rules, pet policy, and owner-occupancy ratios should be confirmed directly with the association. These affect both livability and financing eligibility. Some conventional and FHA loans have owner-occupancy thresholds that a complex with high investor concentration will not meet. Ask your lender and your broker before going under contract.
Silvermine does not trade often. When a unit becomes available, buyers who have done their homework move faster and negotiate from a stronger position. The Engel Team tracks off-market activity across Norwalk’s condominium inventory, monitors association activity, and can provide a pricing analysis specific to this complex, not just a broad Norwalk average. If you are a seller at Silvermine, pricing relative to the thin comp base here requires judgment. The spread between the lowest and highest recent sales is unusually wide, and a single outlier transaction should not anchor your list price.
Whether you are buying, selling, or evaluating the complex as part of a broader Norwalk search, reach out to The Engel Team for a current assessment. We work across the full range of Norwalk condominium inventory and can help you place Silvermine in accurate market context.
