The apartment was very nice in a great location. However parking was an issue for my husband.

New Canaan’s 06840 offers classic New England charm with a polished, small-town pace. The walkable core around Elm, Main, and Forest streets mixes boutiques with daily staples like Walter Stewart’s Market and ACME; fuel up at Zumbach’s coffee and restaurants such as Elm, Gates, Solé, and Tequila Mockingbird. Fitness is easy at the New Canaan YMCA, Oxygen Fitness, and local studios. Outdoor time centers on Waveny Park (with Spencer’s Run dog area), Irwin Park’s loop, Mead Park’s fields and pond, the New Canaan Nature Center, and Bristow Bird Sanctuary; the Glass House and Carriage Barn Arts Center anchor the arts scene. Expect four seasons—snowy winters, bright springs, warm summers, and vivid fall foliage. The vibe is family- and pet-friendly with low-key evenings and community events. The Metro-North New Canaan Branch (New Canaan and Talmadge Hill) plus quick Merritt Parkway access ease commuting. Zillow Market Trends in recent months indicate a higher-tier median asking rent, with most listings in a mid-to-upper price range.
