85 Soundview Avenue, Norwalk, CT, 06854 | $1,570,000

Rare Fairfield County opportunity to own a fully renovated compound featuring two detached, fully independent residences on one property in a highly desirable area of Norwalk. Bordering Rowayton, this unique offering combines luxury living with rare flexibility, ideal for buyers seeking extended family living, guest accommodations, or potential rental income. The main residence is a classic Colonial offering 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths, 1 half bath, and a dedicated office. It features a bright, open layout designed for everyday living and entertaining, anchored by a fully updated chef's kitchen, modern bathrooms, red oak hardwood flooring, and all new windows and doors throughout. Every detail has been thoughtfully upgraded to deliver a clean, cohesive, move-in-ready home. The second residence (guest cottage) is a fully independent home in its own right, offering 3 bedrooms, including a primary suite, 2 full baths, a dedicated office, and a private gated yard. The expanded open concept layout provides excellent flow and privacy, making it perfectly suited for extended family, long term guests, or generating potential rental income while maintaining complete separation from the main home. Both residences have been comprehensively renovated from top to bottom, including new roofs, siding, gutters, HVAC systems, plumbing, electrical, insulation, and energy-efficient mechanicals, offering true peace of mind and low-maintenance ownership. Outdoor improvements for the main residence include a bluestone entry, front and rear covered porches, a new paved driveway, full perimeter fencing for privacy, and professionally designed landscaping that enhances both curb appeal and usability. The property is conveniently located near Norwalk's waterfront, beaches, marinas, dining, shopping, and major highways, with quick access to Rowayton, Darien town center, and the South Norwalk train station for easy commuting. Public water, sewer, and natural gas connections complete this rare turnkey offering. Schedule a visit to tour this highly versatile property that delivers luxury, space, and income potential in one of Fairfield County's most desirable locations.
