Redding is a rural, heavily wooded town in northern Fairfield County with no true downtown and almost no chain retail — quiet, private, and outdoorsy. Housing stock is dominated by large-lot colonials, farmhouses, and historic homes on multi-acre parcels, many backing onto preserved land. It is Mark Twain's adopted hometown and one of Connecticut's most deliberately low-key luxury markets.
The median listing price in Redding is $1,099,500.
