The Saugatuck Condos for Sale

Availability at The Saugatuck moves on its own schedule. With a small number of recorded units and a 55+ ownership structure, turnover here is not frequent. When a unit does come to market, it tends to attract buyers who know exactly what they want — a manageable footprint, elevator access, and a Westport address at a price point well below the town’s overall median of roughly $2 million. If you are waiting for a specific unit type, that wait can stretch for months. The Engel Team monitors off-market activity and pre-listing conversations at buildings like this one — contact us directly if you want early notice on anything coming available at The Saugatuck.

Recently Sold at The Saugatuck

MLS records show 17 sales at The Saugatuck. Closed prices ranged from $150,000 to $905,000, with a median of $226,581. Unit sizes ran from 682 to 1,747 square feet, and the median price per square foot across recorded sales was approximately $270/SF. The price range is wide because the dataset includes both standard residential units and a small number of transactions at the higher end that appear to reflect different unit classifications. Buyers should review each comparable carefully before drawing conclusions about value.

About The Saugatuck

The Saugatuck is a 55+ mid-rise condominium community located at 58 Saugatuck Avenue in Westport, CT. The building is served by an elevator, which makes it a practical option for buyers who want a single-level living experience without stairs. A fitness center is available on-site. The Saugatuck Avenue address places this building in the western corridor of Westport, in close proximity to the Saugatuck neighborhood and the Saugatuck River. That location is a meaningful distinction inside a town where geography drives value: the Saugatuck neighborhood sits close to the village center, the Metro-North station, and the mix of independent retail and restaurants along the Post Road. For buyers downsizing within Westport or relocating specifically to be near the train, the address is useful. The building is age-restricted, which shapes the ownership profile and the pace of resale activity here more than in a general-population condominium building.

Homes and Layouts at The Saugatuck

MLS records show one- and two-bedroom units at The Saugatuck. Recorded square footage ranges from 682 square feet on the smaller one-bedroom units to 1,747 square feet on the largest recorded two-bedroom. The mid-range two-bedroom units, such as unit 210 at 987 square feet and unit 201 at 1,197 square feet, represent a more typical footprint for the building. Unit A and Unit B, which closed at $900,000 and $905,000 respectively in 2023 and early 2024, are considerably larger and carry different HOA structures, suggesting they may be a distinct classification within the complex. Bath counts across recorded sales range from one to three, with most standard units at one or two baths. The building is apartment-style, accessed by elevator, without the vertical stair layout of a townhouse. Parking and outdoor space specifics for individual units are not available in the verified data and should be confirmed with the listing agent or association directly.

What Buyers Need to Know

The HOA fee at The Saugatuck has varied across recorded sales. The most frequently cited figure in MLS records is $614/month, but unit-level fees in the sales table range from $300 to $759 per month. That spread is wide enough that buyers should not assume any single number applies to the unit they are considering. Request the current fee schedule, the most recent reserve study, and a copy of the association’s financial statements before making an offer.

Property taxes across recorded sales have been modest relative to the broader Westport market. The $0 tax entries for Units A and B are unusual and should be verified with the town assessor. Standard units show annual taxes ranging from approximately $1,800 to $2,753, which is well below what buyers would carry on a single-family home in Westport at any comparable price point.

Because The Saugatuck is an age-restricted 55+ community, buyers must confirm eligibility requirements before proceeding. Age-restricted communities typically have specific rules about who can occupy each unit and under what conditions. This structure also limits the resale pool to qualified buyers, which is a factor in pricing and days on market that buyers and sellers should both understand going in.

The resale history here shows meaningful price variation between units of similar size and bedroom count. Unit 103, a two-bedroom at 940 square feet, sold for $168,500 in early 2021, while Unit 210, a two-bedroom at 987 square feet, sold for $295,000 just a few weeks later. That kind of spread in the same building at the same moment reflects differences in unit condition, floor level, or interior finish that MLS data alone does not capture. Before establishing an offer price or a listing price, a unit-level walkthrough and a condition-adjusted comp analysis are essential. The Engel Team handles that process regularly for Westport CT condos and can give you a direct read on where a specific unit stands.

Rental restrictions, pet policy, and owner-occupancy ratios are not available in the verified data. Buyers who are purchasing as investors or who plan to rent the unit at any point should confirm the association’s rental rules before closing. Lenders financing condominium purchases often require owner-occupancy ratios above a certain threshold, and age-restricted buildings can complicate standard financing. Confirm your loan structure with a lender experienced in 55+ condominium transactions.
