Watertown, CT real estate
Watertown, including Oakville, sits just north of Waterbury with more of a small-town feel.
The Watertown market right now
Watertown by the numbers
What I’m seeing
- Homes listed right now carry a median asking price of $450,000, well above the $335,000 median that homes actually sold for over the past year. Part of that is the mix of homes on the market today, and it’s the reason I price from closed sales rather than from other listings.
- Homes are selling at a steady pace. The typical listing has been on the market about 21 days.
- Inventory is tighter than a year ago: 70 single-family listings now versus 101 in October.

About Watertown
Watertown includes the village of Oakville, with Routes 6, 63 and 73 running through town.
Black Rock State Park is a local favorite for swimming and hiking.
Homes are mostly capes, ranches and colonials, with some larger homes on more land.
A tip from Stanley
Watertown and Oakville can price quite differently. I make sure the comparable sales come from the right part of town.
