Tight-knit community in New Haven County
“Tight-knit” and “comfortably secluded” are words used to describe Seymour, a New Haven County town set around the Naugatuck River and full of dense, expansive wildlife areas. Established in 1850, this southwest Connecticut community retains much of that vintage charm, from its walkable downtown full of boutiques to its homes surrounded by trees. “Everyone's family, and everyone knows everyone," says Nickie O'Toole, a Realtor with O'Toole Realty LLC and Seymour resident. “Our downtown is an old, 1800s-type walking-around downtown with some great shops. We have a lot of parks and rec areas; there’s a really great natural scene here. Seymour’s a wonderful place to live.”
Enjoy a safe, family-oriented environment in the Seymour neighborhood.

Vintage Victorians and custom contemporary homes
The homes in Seymour are found primarily in its expansive residential areas, in a range of architectural styles, including Minimal Traditional, ranch-style, and custom contemporary, and built anywhere between 1900 and 2022. Many of these homes sit on spacious lots, full of green grass and flanked by tall trees, with long driveways leading to two-car garages. Prices range from $225,000 for 800 square feet to $735,000 for 3,000 square feet. Those in the market for condos and townhouses can find them throughout the town, ranging from $136,000 for 600 square feet to $389,000 for 2,000 square feet. While the variety of homes in Seymour is wide, it can be challenging to purchase there. “If you find a home for sale that you like, move fast because inventory is often low,” says O’Toole.
