The town remains unspoiled yet all the necessary amenities are found nearby. Easton has been able to keep its rural character for several reasons, among them zoning, most of the town is restricted to 3 acres per home, and a large percentage of the town (over 40%) is public watershed or open space. Several working farms are still located within the town, including tree farms, orchards, beekeepers and specialty plants.

Easton provides a solid academic program, ranking near or at the top of schools in Connecticut. The elementary school and middle school are located within the town; the high school is combined with the adjacent town of Redding.

Although land locked, residents have access to the beaches located to the south in the town of Fairfield. The town possesses two excellent private golf courses and public tennis courts, baseball diamonds and parks for hiking, horseback riding and cross-country skiing.

Selling Your Home >Multiple Listing Service When you list your house with a real estate agent who participates in the Multiple Listing Service (MLS), you get a lot of service for your money. Depending upon the MLS region, there may be hundreds of participating members. The real estate agent who lists your home works to get it sold. This is done by marketing directly to home buyers, but an even more powerful tool is marketing your home to other agents who have buyers. Your real estate agent makes all the crucial information about your home available to the other members through the MLS. Information such as your home's location, size, the number of rooms, the style of architecture, what personal property is included, and any other special features is posted. The MLS description will also contain information about any special financing that might be available, showing instructions, and special needs you may have with respect to closing. The MLS is a powerful tool for real estate matchmakers. See All Tips In The "Selling Your Home" Category > See Complete Library Of Hundreds Of Tips In 30+ Categories >
