Easton Connecticut Real estate

Rich in nature and country appeal, Easton emulates traditional New England charm. With over 7,500 acres of forest surrounding three vast reservoirs, Easton enjoys a quiet residential community of approximately 7,492 residents with very little commerce aside from fruit orchards, tree farms, dairy farms and general stores.

Easton has been able to maintain its rural character over the years by its strict zoning of either one or three acre parcels for building. Architectural styles include picturesque farmhouses, early colonials and newer homes of contemporary and traditional design. Since the establishment of Connecticut's first free school in Easton, the town has continued to provide a solid academic foundation to students with one public elementary school, one public middle school and one shared public high school located in nearby Redding, CT.

Because Easton’s landscape is so vast, outdoor activities flourish in this area. Throughout the year one could engage in numerous activities such as horseback riding, nature hiking, walking and biking in the 125 acres of open space, fishing, swimming, fruit, vegetable and berry picking, tree harvesting and animal petting at local farms. The town also provides sporting facilities through its parks, baseball diamonds and tennis courts. The Connecticut Golf Club offers a variety of social and recreational pleasures to members, including excellent golf courses.
