The Town consists of farmland, protected open space, and rolling hill country surrounding Bantam Lake, the largest natural lake in Connecticut.

Organized in 1767, Morris was once known as the South Farms parish of Litchfield. Initially a farming community, the Town of Morris was incorporated as a separate town in 1859 and named for James Morris, a Revolutionary War soldier who opened the Morris Academy, a coeducational academy that drew students in from all over the world in 1790.

The local government of Morris is run by three selectmen elected by the town at large. The First Selectman serves as the Town’s chief elected and administrative officer and is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the Town. Other volunteer boards and commissions are charged with governing specific facets of Town business and upholding ordinances and regulations.

Morris is comprised of wonderful residents who make the Town an excellent place to live and raise a family.

LAST MONTH’S DATA COMPARED TO PREVIOUS TWO YEARS

  • The industry considers Median Sales Price a more accurate look at home prices than average because it eliminates the outliers that can skew data.

  • Low inventory (new & active listings) can lead to a sellers market, especially if pending & sold listings are up. The opposite, high inventory and low sales will lead to a buyers market.

  • Months of inventory reflects an estimate of the amount of time it would take to sell all of the current listings in a given area.  Six months is considered a ‘balanced’ market. Anything under 6 months is considered a sellers market and anything above is a buyers market.
