May 15th, 2008 categories: Market Data & Statistics, Recent Transactions, Ridgefield, Talking Real Estate
“If the shoe fits…” well you know how that goes. Ridgefield homebuyers look for a neighborhood that “fits”. Each area of town offers a different mix of location, amenities, house styles/ages, schools and more. The Neighborhood Profile series of posts introduces each section of Ridgefield with photos (see below), real estate information (solds, actives, stats) and more.
Twin Ridge is one of Ridgefield’s most sought-after locaions. This friendly neighborhood offers quiet streets, beautiful homes and a very social crew (block parties, …). Twin Ridge is located near the center of Ridgefield and has quick access to Routes 33, 35 and 7 providing especially easy commuting down-county and into Westchester.
The majority of homes were built in the late 1960’s (most have been updated, renovated or expanded) and many newer homes added over the years. Most are of traditional colonial style with capes, ranches and some contemporaries as well.

Rainbow Lake in Ridgefield CT: Real Estate Activity 2006-2008
May 8th, 2008 categories: Buying Your House, Lake Living, Market Data & Statistics, Recent Transactions, Ridgefield, Talking Real Estate
I have been fortunate enough to have lived on Rainbow Lake since November 2001. Over the years, there has been a lot of renovation, re-building, and refurbishing of the original lake cottages surrounding the lake that were built in the mid 1930’s to 1940’s. Rainbow Lake is a magnificent 44 acre lake nestled in a valley behind the Bennett’s Pond Trail System, Hemlock Hills, and Pierrepont State Park in Ridgefield, CT.
In the past few years we have seen an influx of city dwellers looking for a weekend retreat within 1 hour of NYC. Ridgefield’s Rainbow lake, with its quiet understated charm seems to fit the bill. Most of the homeowners of Rainbow Lake are here full-time, but the mix of weekenders and residents give it a resort feel in the heart of the New York suburbs.
Rainbow lake real estate values continue to increase as more and more people discover the allure of lake living. Following are all of the transactions from the past two years around Rainbow Lake. Note how many were listed, sold or both listed and sold by Rob and me. Nobody knows the lake like us and we are always available to answer any questions you might have about buying, selling or living on the lake. We are the ‘lake experts”!
