Quiet residential community with train access
Development in Glenbrook first began when the railroad from Stamford to New Canaan built the first station on the line in the neighborhood, and the area’s convenient train station continues to be a popular asset. “It’s a very convenient residential area that’s close to everything: downtown, beaches, and the Metro-North line at the Glenbrook station,” says Todd Auslander, partner at the Auslander Kasindorf Team at Keller Williams Prestige Properties who has served the area for over two decades. Glenbrook’s active neighborhood association encourages connection, while a wide array of restaurants and parks are close by in the diverse southeastern Stamford neighborhood.
High-rise condos and Cape Cods
A mixture of condos and single-family homes sit close together on quiet residential streets. “Single-family homes are in the $500 to $600,000 range, which is affordable for Stamford. In most places around here, you can’t get into a single-family for under a high $400,000, and that’s for a home that will need some work,” Auslander says. He adds that the area’s would-be starter homes aren’t going on the market, as buyers who secured low interest rates aren’t selling, resulting in low housing inventory. He adds, “Any time I put a listing on the market, pretty much the first thing I’ll hear from buyers’ agents is ‘When are the best and final offers due?’ since we all know there’s going to be multiple bids.” Condos, which were built between 1960 and 1985, run the gamut from brick high-rises to colonial townhouse styles. Prices start at around $240,000 and rise to around $400,000. Colonial Revivals and Cape Cods were built in the early to mid 1900s, and cost between $700,000 and $950,000, while smaller single-family homes were built in the mid-to-late 1900s. These ranches and bi-level properties are usually priced between $500,000 and $600,000.

Neighborhood cleanups and seasonal festivities
The Glenbrook Neighborhood Association, which has an annual fee of $10 per resident, organizes community events. Neighbors meet to discuss improvement plans at the association’s quarterly meetings, which are held at the Grace Evangelical Free Church. Residents come together to freshen up their homes and community at the spring and fall cleanups, which include unwanted clothing recycling, food drives, a swap meet and street cleanups. The community also meets for more festive celebrations, like the annual holiday tree lighting in early December at Hope Street Island Park. Kids enter a toy raffle and take pictures with Santa as locals sip free hot chocolate topped with marshmallows. The Ukrainian Museum and Library of Stamford, which is housed on the St. Basil Seminary campus, has special programs and displays of Ukrainian art and literature to peruse.

Local restaurants on Hope Street
Though downtown is the most popular area to eat, Glenbrook has a convenient commercial corridor. “Hope Street runs right through Glenbrook, which is where you find restaurants, stores and gas stations,” Auslander says. Mornings can start with donuts and coffee from Donut Delight or fresh bagels with flavored cream cheese from Village Bagels. Cosechas is a Colombian restaurant popular for its empanadas, and residents can grab a late-night slice from Nick’s Pizza. The family-owned restaurant has been serving thin-crust pizza since 1969; the pizzeria also has an adjoining bar called Bacco, where locals sip beer and cocktails. There are a couple of grab-and-go convenience stores throughout Glenbrook, and the Grade A Market on Hope Street is a small market that stocks groceries and household essentials. To shop at a larger supermarket, residents can drive about a mile and a half west to Stop and Shop. Downtown’s shopping area, called Stamford Town Center, is also about a mile and a half southwest. Residents walk around the mall, which has popular retailers like Macy's and Barnes and Noble, or pop over to big box stores like Target and Burlington.
Enjoy craft beers and cocktails at the bar in Nick's Pizza, a local Glenbrook favorite.

Pockets of green space in Glenbrook
A couple of pocket parks add green space to the city streets. Northrop Park has a small playground where younger kids can run around while older children can play catch on the baseball diamond or a pickup game on the basketball court. Hope Street Island Park and Daskam Park both are tiny green spaces positioned between converging streets, where residents can sit on shaded park benches. For a longer forested walk, residents can travel about 2 miles northeast to the Woodland Park Nature Preserve in Darien. The park’s shaded nature trails wind by streams and connect hikers to ponds where they can observe wildlife. Locals can also drive about 2 miles southeast to go to one of the most popular parks in Stamford; Cove Island has a paved loop for bike rides and plenty of sandy beaches to swim. Beachgoers must pay for a seasonal parking pass, but there are discounts for Stamford residents and steeper discounts for residents whose cars are registered in the city.

Commuters board the New Haven line in Glenbrook
Commuters headed toward New York City benefit from the neighborhood’s train station, which is within walking distance for many but also has a parking lot. The New Haven line on the Metro-North Railroad takes residents to Grand Central Station in about an hour and 15 minutes. To travel throughout Stamford, locals can walk to bus stops operated by CTtransit; Route 334 takes residents downtown in about 15 minutes. Popular thoroughfares like Interstate 95 and nearby Washington Boulevard provide easier commute options for drivers. The Stamford Hospital is just over 2 miles away from the neighborhood, offering residents quick access to medical care.
