"Amazing value, well kept secret!"

Addesleigh park is an absolute gem and a best kept secret. The neighbours are extremely friendly, warm and proud of their neighborhood. Neighbors actually stopped and welcomed us to the neighborhood. My husband also made friends and is included in the Friday night have a beer and relax tradition of a few other husbands on the block. It is designated as a historic neighborhood as many famous black athletes and musicians called this place home. The families are solidly middle class and many upper middle class. 6 mins to the Van Wyck. Close to the Belt Park way. Walking distance to the veterans affair hospital. Bike lanes. 27 mins to Penn station on the LIRR. Mainly one way streets and double car garrage with long drive ways means parking is a breeze. Not much to offer in terms of restaurant. The school at York college seems to be well rated. However the surrounding publics schools are average to mediocre. However the houses and property taxes are very affordable. Many residents have lived here for 20, 30, 40 years. Very quiet also.
Pros
  • wonderful neighborhood parks with indoor swimming pool, tennis court and more.
  • 27 minutes to Manhattan on the Long Island Railroad
  • Magnificent , beautiful well kept homes. Think huge colonials and tudors.
  • 10 minutes from JFK and 20 to LGA
  • great transportation, express bus to midtown, quiet family friendly, professional, white and blue collar
  • Lots of green space, off street parking, single homes
