Well-connected Bronx neighborhood close to shopping, parks and more
Kingsbridge Heights is a neighborhood that blends convenience and serenity in the heart of the Bronx, offering walkable amenities, plentiful green space and accessible transportation links. Once a hub from being a link to Manhattan from the Kings Bridge - where the neighborhood gets its name - Kingsbridge Heights offers a well-connected lifestyle with proximity to shopping and recreation. "Kingsbridge Heights has everything you need," says Vanessa Villanueva, a licensed real estate salesperson and team leader with Keller Williams Realty NYC. "It's walkable to so much in the Bronx: stores, restaurants, transportation, parks. Everything is jam-packed into one area, but it doesn't seem as busy because there's so much green space. It's a little oasis tucked away near the reservoir."
Kingsbridge Heights is a popular neighborhood for home buyers.
Shops at Marble Hill is a family-friendly outdoor shopping center in the Bronx.

Co-ops, rowhouses and multi-family housing
In Kingsbridge Heights, charming turn-of-the-century rowhouses and detached pre-war single-family homes stand shoulder to shoulder with sturdy, brick multi-family co-ops. "Kingsbridge Heights has predominantly co-ops," Villanueva says. "Co-ops are priced somewhat reasonably compared to single-family homes, so they're a good stepping stone for people starting out in real estate." Co-ops may cost from $100,000 for a one-bedroom unit to $360,000 for a three-bedroom unit. Single-family homes can cost from the mid $400,000s to the low $800,000s, and rowhouses fall within the same range. Detached builds converted for multi-family use can fetch up to $1.6 million. "Inventory in the area is tight," Villanueva adds. "A lot of the homes are passed down through the generations, so I see a lot of internal family sales that don't reach the market."
The average household income is approximately $79,136.
Kingsbridge Heights is known for its diverse community, and close-knit atmosphere.
