Welcome to Easton
A pastoral paradise in a convenient New England location.
Easton, Connecticut is one of Fairfield County’s smaller and more rural towns, home to more than twenty farms and acres of beautiful, undeveloped woodland. The town has a pastoral feel, offering residents a taste of country life that’s a short drive to shopping, restaurants, and major highways.
Homes in Easton can price into the millions—or close to it. Properties tend to be situated on more substantial acreage than other towns in Fairfield County, and New England Colonials and farmhouses are plentiful. Lots in the new Adirondack Estates development are currently available for luxury home construction.

People & Lifestyle
With no more than 8,000 residents, Easton is truly a small, peaceful New England town. There are plenty of farms of various sizes, and residents tend to focus on environmental conservation. It’s the perfect town for those who are tired of city life and are looking for a more relaxing place to call home!
Just an hour and a half north of New York City, Easton is a great place for commuters looking for a countryside home—professionals usually drive to the Fairfield station and take the train down. This also works well for families who want to enjoy city amenities while raising children in a more relaxed environment.
Dining, Entertainment & Shopping
Due to Easton’s size and rural location, nightlife is harder to come by—people tend to move here for the scenic views and farm country rather than dining hotspots. Fortunately, larger towns like Fairfield, Norwalk, and Bridgeport are just minutes away, offering everything from beaches to shopping.
