Greenwich, CT Real Estate & Homes for Sale
Connecticut's Gold Coast at its most iconic: Greenwich Avenue, waterfront estates, backcountry acreage and four Metro-North stations, just across the state line from Westchester.
Living in Greenwich
One town, many distinct villages
Greenwich is a single town made up of well-known sections, central Greenwich around Greenwich Avenue, the waterfront villages of Old Greenwich, Riverside and Cos Cob, Byram and Glenville on the New York border, and the large-lot backcountry north of the Merritt Parkway.
Buyers come for the coastline, the schools, the commute and Connecticut's tax structure. Housing ranges from condos and townhouses near the train to classic Colonials in Riverside and Old Greenwich and gated estates in the backcountry.
Our team works on both sides of the state line, which matters for buyers comparing Greenwich with Rye, Harrison or Scarsdale. We can lay out the trade-offs in price, taxes, schools and commute side by side.
