Best CT options for CT-NYC dual living

Background * Mid-30s * Considering accepting a job offer in the Norwalk area * Need to be there M-F to start, but only T-Th eventually * Want to continue living in NYC * Plan to drive and stay in CT for the week * Have considered train, daily NYC-CT commute, and other options, but want to stick with the above

What might good living options in CT be for me? Looking for city, neighborhood, and even apartment complex recommendations or pros/cons. Would also consider a hotel. I do not expect to socialize outside of work & the gym while in CT -- just need a comfortable, convenient place during the week.

Must-haves * Relatively close to Norwalk * Live alone * Cannot hear neighbors (street sounds okay) * On-site parking * Whole foods, Trader Joe's, or large grocery store nearby

Nice-to-haves * Any sort of view * Under $3k/mo but ideally closer to $2k * Furnished / shorter-term lease
