Electrolux is gone, and so is the blue collar neighborhood that was next to it

9 Fairfield Avenue, Old Greenwich, was listed for $1.699 million 8 days ago and is pending today, so probably going for more. The previous owners listed it for $1.395 in 2020 and only got $1.170 (from these owners); COVID market vs. present one.

The current iteration of this 1909 house shows a very nice renovation, mostly done by those 2020 sellers, but it wasn’t very long ago that Fairfield Avenue/Rockland Place homes were awfully cheap compared to those on other nearby streets; the tiny tenth-of-an-acre lots remain, but the houses are becoming unrecognizable.
