The Landings Condos in Norwalk, CT

The Landings Condos for Sale

The Landings is a 17-unit mid-rise condominium building in Norwalk, and with only 17 units in the complex, availability moves quickly and does not stay on the market long. Turnover here is thin by design. This is not a large development with rotating inventory. When a unit does come available, it competes directly against a short list of comparables, which means buyers who are not monitoring the building actively will miss the window. The Norwalk condo market has softened modestly in recent months, with Norwalk CT condos showing decreased activity across the board, which may create some negotiating room that was not available a year ago. If you want to know what is currently listed or what may be coming to market off-MLS, contact The Engel Team directly.

Recently Sold at The Landings

MLS data shows 13 recorded sales at The Landings. Closed prices ranged from $375,000 to $799,000, with a median sale price of $435,000. Unit sizes ran from 1,180 to 1,894 square feet. The median price per square foot across all sales was approximately $356/SF.

The most recent sales tell a sharper story. Unit 2A closed at $620,000 in March 2025, and units APT 4B and APT 2C both closed in late 2024 at $585,000 and $578,000, respectively. All three were 2-bedroom, 3-bath units at 1,180–1,281 square feet. That puts the most recent trades in the $453–$484/SF range, well above the all-time median. The penthouse units (P1 and P2) tell a different story: P1 closed at $799,000 in March 2022 at 1,894 square feet, and P2 sold at $675,000 in April 2021 at the same footprint. Those larger units command a meaningful premium and do not come available often.

About The Landings

The Landings is a mid-rise condominium building at 136 East Avenue in Norwalk, CT, constructed between 2004 and 2006. With 17 total units, it is a small building by any measure. That size is one of its defining characteristics. Owners here are not living in a 200-unit complex with an anonymous association and a management company that does not return calls. The building offers river views and elevator access, which distinguishes it from the majority of Norwalk condominiums that are either garden-style walk-ups or townhouse configurations without those amenities. The location puts residents within reach of Norwalk’s SoNo area and its beaches, which matters for buyers who want walkability without giving up a condominium structure. For context on how The Landings fits within Norwalk CT real estate broadly, the city’s overall median for all property types sits at $660,000, making The Landings’ recent trade range of $578,000–$620,000 for standard units competitive but not discounted.

Homes and Layouts at The Landings

Every verified sale at The Landings has been a 2-bedroom, 3-bath unit. That is a consistent pattern across 13 sales and reflects the building’s unit mix. Square footage breaks into two clear tiers. Standard units run 1,180 to 1,281 square feet. The penthouse units at 1,894 square feet represent the top of the range and have traded significantly higher, at $675,000 and $799,000 in 2021 and 2022, respectively. The mid-rise structure includes an elevator, which is a practical feature that matters to buyers who intend to age in place or who are downsizing from a larger home. The ranch-style unit configuration means single-level living within each unit, avoiding the vertical layout of townhouse-style condominiums. Parking and outdoor space details should be confirmed through the current listing or the association directly, as verified data on those specifics is not available in MLS records reviewed.

What Buyers Need to Know

HOA fees at The Landings have ranged from $367 to $774 per month across recorded sales, with variation reflecting both unit type and the year of the transaction. The most recent trades show fees of $488 to $774 per month. The penthouse units carry higher fees consistent with their larger footprint. Annual property taxes have ranged from $6,180 to $9,145 depending on the unit. Buyers should request the current fee schedule from the association and confirm whether that figure includes water, sewer, building insurance, or exterior maintenance, as the breakdown varies by complex and is not specified in MLS data.

Before closing on any unit at The Landings, buyers should obtain the full resale package, which in Connecticut typically includes the association’s financial statements, reserve fund balance, meeting minutes from the past two years, and any active or pending special assessments. Given that the building was constructed between 2004 and 2006, it is now 18 to 21 years old. Buyers should ask specifically about the status of building systems including the roof, elevator, and common area HVAC, and confirm that the reserve fund is adequately capitalized to handle replacements without triggering a special assessment. A thin reserve fund in a 17-unit building means any significant capital expense is shared across a small ownership pool.

The building’s river-adjacent location raises the question of flood zone designation. Buyers should confirm the FEMA flood zone classification for this address and determine whether flood insurance is required. If the unit falls within a Special Flood Hazard Area, flood insurance premiums should be factored into the total monthly cost of ownership alongside the HOA fee and taxes. Renovation variation between units is also worth investigating. In a building this size, individual owners may have made different improvements over time, and condition can vary meaningfully from one unit to the next at the same listed price. A thorough inspection and review of permit history are both warranted.

Rental rules, pet policies, and owner-occupancy ratio should all be confirmed with the association before submitting an offer. Lender approval can be affected by a low owner-occupancy ratio, particularly for buyers seeking conventional financing.

Buying or Selling at The Landings

Pricing a unit at The Landings requires more precision than most buyers expect. The spread between a standard unit and a penthouse unit has been over $350,000 in actual closed sales. Floor, view, condition, and finish level all affect value in a building this small, and there are no large pools of identical comps to smooth out individual unit differences. That makes accurate valuation critical whether you are buying or listing.

For sellers, that means a pricing strategy grounded in the specific closed data from this building, not a generic market average.
