A Rare Waterfront Retreat. Set along Fairfield's coveted Pine Creek, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers a private dock with easy access to Long Island Sound and a relaxed coastal lifestyle. Spend your days boating, kayaking or paddleboarding right from your backyard, then unwind on the expansive deck overlooking the water. Inside, a light-filled, open layout makes the most of the setting, with walls of windows capturing water views throughout the main living spaces. The chef's kitchen features a large center island and opens naturally to the living and dining areas, creating an easy flow for everyday life and entertaining. A spacious bonus/game room with a vaulted ceiling and fireplace is an inviting spot for movie nights, game days or gathering with friends and family. The primary suite enjoys peaceful water views, while three additional generously sized bedrooms offer plenty of space for family, guests or a home office. Outside, the deck with awning extends the living space and provides a natural place for summer dinners and evenings by the water. An additional parcel across the street offers extra parking, recreation space and access to scenic marsh trails. With a private dock, easy Long Island Sound access and a setting designed to be enjoyed inside and out, this is Pine Creek living at its best.
Fairfield Beach, located between Ash Creek and Long Island Sound, is a coastal and residential Bridgeport neighborhood with sandy shoreline and low-slung beach cottages. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Fairfield Beach Road near the Penfield Beach entrance, where seasonal snack stands, casual eateries, and bike traffic set the tempo. Penfield Beach and its pavilion frame daily routines with boardwalk strolls and open-water views. Streets mix classic shingled cottages with updated capes and contemporary rebuilds, often with decks facing the water. The Fairfield Metro station corridor sits a short drive inland, linking beach calm with commuter rhythm. Marsh edges and tidal inlets give the area a salt-air, seabird soundtrack.
