About This Home

As of July 2025

Welcome to 51 Laurel Street, a spacious and well-maintained expanded Cape in Fairfield's Tunxis Hill neighborhood. With over 2,200 square feet, 4 oversized bedrooms, and 3 full baths, this home offers the kind of space that's hard to find at this price point. The main level offers a private bedroom suite-perfect for guests or multi-generational living-while upstairs you'll find three additional bedrooms, including a spacious primary suite with a large walk-in closet. Set on a flat, level lot with a large yard, stone patio, and oversized deck, there's plenty of room to relax, host, or simply enjoy the outdoors. Inside, you'll find freshly painted walls and beautiful hardwood floors that run throughout the home. The kitchen is impressively sized-big enough for holiday spreads, homework stations, and everything in between-with a brand new stove and dishwasher already in place. The kitchen and baths blend classic charm with modern convenience: clean, spacious, and fully functional. Additional highlights include a newer oil burner (2021), brand new oil tank (2025), ductless mini-splits in the family room and primary bedroom, and two off-street parking spaces. A full, unfinished basement adds storage or future potential. If you've been waiting for the chance to get into Fairfield with space to grow and a yard to enjoy-without breaking the bank-this is the opportunity.
