Flexible Building Configuration
The office portion is designed to support both employees and visitors, with multiple private offices, reception and waiting areas, meeting or training space, open work areas, and three handicap-accessible restrooms. The layout can be adapted for a wide range of professional, healthcare-related, training, technology, design, service, showroom, or administrative users, subject to municipal approval.
The rear flex area was originally designed for industrial use and provides three overhead doors, propane-fired heat, and substantial three-phase electrical service. This allows an owner to combine polished office operations with storage, equipment, light assembly, product handling, service functions, or other business support activities under one roof.
A Generac standby generator adds an important measure of business continuity during utility interruptions. The approximately 36-space parking field provides a strong ratio for employees, clients, customers, and visitors.
Why It Works for an Owner-User
• Occupancy Control: Reduce exposure to future lease renewals, relocation risk, and unpredictable rent negotiations.
• Equity Creation: Redirect occupancy dollars toward ownership and long-term asset value.
• Operational Freedom: Control improvements, signage, maintenance standards, building systems, and the timing of capital projects.
• Business Identity: Establish a permanent, highly visible headquarters at a freestanding property rather than disappearing into a multi-tenant complex.
• Adaptable Use: Combine office, client service, storage, equipment, loading, and operational functions in one facility.
• Future Flexibility: Reconfigure the interior as the business grows or operational needs change, subject to approvals.
Sandy Hook and Newtown: Business Location with Community Appeal
Newtown offers a combination that is increasingly hard to duplicate: Fairfield County access with the character, open space, and personal scale of a traditional New England community. Established in 1711, Newtown includes the Borough, Sandy Hook, Hawleyville, Botsford, and Dodgingtown, each contributing to the town’s distinct identity.
Sandy Hook is a historic village within Newtown, known for its locally oriented restaurants, shops, services, and strong sense of place. The village center, Fairfield Hills campus, community amenities, and regional road network create a setting that is attractive to employees, clients, and business owners who value both convenience and quality of life.
Newtown is geographically the largest municipality in Fairfield County, yet it retains a notably small-town feel. The community offers more than a dozen public parks, a state forest, waterfront recreation, and approximately 30 scenic trails, along with cultural, dining, recreational, and community activities throughout the year.
Directly Across from Newtown High School. Newtown High School is located at 12 Berkshire Road, immediately opposite the property. This provides a readily recognized address, excellent wayfinding, and prominent exposure along a well-traveled section of Route 34. For many businesses, being able to say “across from the high school” is considerably easier than giving a five-minute set of directions involving a barn, a stone wall, and the second unmarked driveway.
Regional Access and Visibility
Berkshire Road is a key east-west route connecting Sandy Hook and Newtown with Oxford and surrounding communities. The property is minutes from Interstate 84, providing convenient access to Danbury, Brookfield, Bethel, Southbury, Waterbury, and the broader Fairfield County and western Connecticut markets.
Route 34 frontage, on-site parking, freestanding identity, and proximity to a major community landmark combine to create strong visibility for an owner-user seeking a recognizable and accessible business location.
Potential Owner-User Applications
• Professional or corporate offices
• Medical, wellness, therapy, or healthcare-related services
• Training, education, or instructional organizations
• Technology, engineering, design, or consulting firms
• Showroom, product demonstration, or customer-service operations
• Service businesses requiring office, equipment, and storage areas
Offering Summary
17 Berkshire Road presents an owner-user with a rare combination of professional office space, functional flex capability, substantial electrical service, overhead doors, excellent parking, standby power, Route 34 visibility, and a freestanding identity.
With the current tenant planning to vacate, the property can be repositioned as a business headquarters or specialized operating facility tailored to the next owner’s requirements.
Offered for sale at $1,295,000.
