City amenities with a family feel
Named for the knoll on which much of the neighborhood is established, Spring Hill is a Norwalk community of rolling streets, modest homes and a hospital that has served the area since 1893. Situated just west of Downtown Norwalk and flanked by bustling thoroughfares, Spring Hill offers a convenient location to its family-centric community. “Spring Hill has easy access to all the amenities the city offers within quick minutes,” says Realtor and broker Brain Clarke Jr, who has 20 years of experience in real estate. “It’s very close to the main hospital and major highways like Interstate 95 and the parkway.”

Folks enjoy fresh, handmade donuts and classic breakfast plates at Speedy Donuts or opt for an old-fashioned slice of pizza at Uncle Joe’s.
