Larger Homes and Acreage Change Hands

Colonials and large lots were the trend this past week.

Residential sales in Newtown last week included a mid-size colonial, an antique home with some winter damage and a building lot. In Southbury, a large, newer colonial, a mid-size colonial and Heritage Village unit changed hands. Larger lots prevailed this week with most more than 2 acres.
