SOLD | Full-Circle Moments in Stratfield

1320 Merritt Street sold at full asking — $799,000 — above Stratfield's 2025 median of $778,280, at $484.79 per square foot, 11.3% above the neighborhood median. More than 30 groups toured it. I sold this couple the home two years ago and brought it back to market when life moved them on.

They made beautiful memories here, but as life often does, things changed. With their own family growing and loved ones now rooted in New Jersey, it was time for the next chapter.

I brought this classic Colonial to market and saw immediate interest—over 30 groups toured the home, drawn to its timeless charm, thoughtful layout, and Stratfield’s strong sense of community. The results speak for themselves:

• Sold for Full Asking Price: $799,000 — outperforming the 2025 Stratfield median sales price of $778,280
  
  
  

• Achieved $484.79 per square foot — 11.3% higher than the 2025 Stratfield median of $435.71 per sqft
  
  
  

• Stratfield Market Surge: The median home price rose from $500,000 in 2020 to $778,280 in 2025 — a 56% increase in five years
  
  
  

• Customized Marketing Strategy: From timing to presentation, every detail was tailored to highlight this home’s value and attract the right buyers
