Connecticut Luxury Homes for Sale: 98 Pear Tree Point Road
When thinking of real estate in Connecticut, one word that comes to mind is luxury. Walking around town, you’re never too far from a gorgeous home.
Although we’ve seen a dip in inventory nationwide in the 2023 real estate market, Connecticut has remained resilient as we enter the spring market. As a realtor in Connecticut, I know the importance of deciding what style of home is right for you, whether you’re a first time buyer or looking for an upgraded home.
A few desirable locations for high-end properties include Greenwich, Cos Cob, Westport, New Canaan, Bridgeport, and Darien, among many other amazing towns. Speaking of Darien, I have a fantastic new listing in the area!
