"Addesleigh Park, the best kept secret in St. Albans, Queens."

Best kept secret in St. Albans, Queens. Don't believe everything you hear about Jamaica NY. The Addisleigh Park historic district is a suburban-type enclave in southeast Queens with a rich and distinctive history. The neighborhood of approximately 650 homes lies in a rough triangle between Linden Boulevard on the south, the tracks of the Long Island Rail Road on the east, Sayres Avenue on the north and Marne Place on the west. Typical of the era, the area possesses fine examples of English Tudor-style and neo-Colonial Revival houses, many of which are quite sizable. Beautiful larger and medium sized single homes, well manicured lawns. Very very quiet.
Pros
  • Lots of green space, off street parking, single homes
  • great transportation, express bus to midtown, quiet family friendly, professional, white and blue collar
  • 10 minutes from JFK and 20 to LGA
Cons
  • need more restaurants and supermarkets
  • public schools not good.
