Tealbrook Condos for Sale
With only 9 units in the entire complex, availability at Tealbrook is rare by definition. This is not a building where units rotate frequently. When a townhouse does come to market here, it tends to attract serious buyers quickly, partly because the scale of the community is so unusual and partly because the price point sits above the broader Norwalk CT real estate median. If you are actively looking, the right move is to get ahead of the market rather than wait for a listing to appear on a public search portal. Contact The Engel Team directly to monitor availability and get early notice on any unit that becomes available at Tealbrook.
Recently Sold at Tealbrook
MLS records show three sales at Tealbrook, with closed prices ranging from $475,000 to $760,000. That spread reflects both market appreciation over time and meaningful variation between individual units. Here is the full sales record:
| Unit | Date | Price | Bed/Bath | SqFt | HOA/mo | Tax/yr |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| APT 6 | 07/29/2025 | $760,000 | 3/3 | 2,482 | $525 | $11,228 |
| 2 | 06/05/2024 | $639,712 | 3/3 | 2,902 | $475 | $8,508 |
| 1 | 06/15/2018 | $475,000 | 4/4 | 3,103 | $525 | $8,774 |
The median sale price across these three transactions is $639,712, with a median price per square foot of approximately $220. That compares to a broader Norwalk median of $660,000 across all property types. The most recent sale, Unit 6 closing at $760,000 in July 2025, represents the high watermark and reflects the continued demand for larger townhouse-style units with garages in this price range. Note that the 2018 sale for Unit 1, a 4-bedroom, 4-bath unit at 3,103 square feet, closed at $475,000, suggesting considerable appreciation in the years since. Buyers evaluating current listings should weight the 2024 and 2025 comps most heavily and treat the 2018 figure as historical context only.
With only three sales on record, Tealbrook has thin comparable data by any standard. Pricing a unit here, or making an offer, requires careful analysis. Browse the broader pool of Norwalk CT condos for additional market context.
About Tealbrook
Tealbrook is a small condominium community at 212 Richards Avenue in Norwalk, CT. Built in 1990, the complex contains just 9 units, making it one of the smaller residential condominium communities in the city. The building style is townhouse and single-family detached, which gives Tealbrook a character closer to a private residence than a conventional multi-unit building. The complex also carries a water view, which is a meaningful differentiator at this price point in Norwalk. That combination of scale, style, and setting explains why units here sell at or above the citywide median even as the broader Norwalk market has shown softening in recent periods. This is not a large anonymous complex. It is a small community where individual unit condition, renovation history, and specific location within the property all factor heavily into value.
Homes and Layouts at Tealbrook
Units at Tealbrook run from 3 to 4 bedrooms and 3 to 4 bathrooms, with square footage ranging from approximately 2,482 to 3,103 square feet based on verified MLS records. The townhouse layout means vertical living across multiple floors, with entry at grade level and living space distributed above. Garage parking is included. Units at this size range are substantial for a condominium product in Norwalk, and the 4-bedroom, 4-bath unit at over 3,100 square feet is closer to single-family house territory in terms of footprint. Outdoor space details vary by unit and are worth confirming directly during any showing. The building style and unit scale make Tealbrook more relevant to buyers who want the maintenance simplicity of a condominium but need the square footage of a detached home.
What Buyers Need to Know
HOA fees at Tealbrook have ranged from $475 to $525 per month based on the sales record, with the most recent transactions showing $525 per month. Property taxes on recent sales have ranged from $8,508 to $11,228 annually depending on the unit. Buyers should request the current HOA budget, reserve fund balance, and meeting minutes as part of standard due diligence. A 9-unit association has a narrow cost-sharing base, which means any major capital expenditure, roof replacement, exterior repair, shared system work, gets distributed across very few owners. Ask specifically about the age of shared building systems and what, if anything, is currently funded in reserves.
Because Tealbrook has water views and is a 1990-era building, flood zone status and insurance structure deserve direct attention. Confirm the FEMA flood zone designation for the specific units and whether the association carries flood coverage or whether individual unit owners are responsible. This affects both your annual carrying cost and your mortgage lender’s requirements.
Renovation variation between units is likely given the age of the building and the limited transaction history. The gap between a fully updated unit and one with original finishes can be significant at the $600,000-plus price level. Request disclosure on major improvements, HVAC, kitchen, baths, and waterproofing, before making an offer. The resale package should include governing documents, current budget, reserve study if one exists, and any pending or recent special assessments. Review the association’s rental and pet policies before closing if either applies to your situation. For Norwalk homes for sale at this price point, buyer due diligence on a small association is more involved than it would be at a large managed complex, and that is true at Tealbrook.
Buying or Selling at Tealbrook
Tealbrook’s limited sales history makes both pricing and offer strategy more nuanced than at complexes with deep comp pools. For sellers, the July 2025 sale at $760,000 is the current benchmark, but unit condition, renovation quality, and specific placement within the property will drive meaningful variation from that number. For buyers, the thin data means you need an agent who can interpret what the comps actually support rather than one who applies a formula.
The Engel Team works the Norwalk market regularly and can provide a current valuation, track off-market opportunities at Tealbrook, and advise on offer structure given the limited comparable base. If you own a unit here and are considering a sale, the right conversation starts with understanding what the 2025 comp actually signals for your specific unit, not just the headline number. Reach out directly to discuss.
