Quiet living without losing access to NYC

The North White Plains neighborhood in West Harrison, about 35 miles north of New York City, is often where people go to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and embrace the calm of the outdoors. “It’s a quieter, suburban environment with plenty of job opportunities in town, but commuters also have an easy 45-minute ride into Grand Central Station on the express train, which is why they call this area a mini New York City,” says Valerio Santucci, a Realtor at Link NY Realty with experience in the greater Westchester region. North White Plains provides lake and hiking adventures in a private, community-minded suburb, making it a sanctuary for outdoor enthusiasts. And in the same breath, there’s big city access via train or interstate, making this West Harrison neighborhood a commuter haven.

North White Plains combines small-town charm with urban convenience, offering local dining, shopping, and quick access to major highways.

Focus on athletics in the area's public schools

Younger students can benefit from an 11:1 student-to-teacher ratio at George Washington School, which receives a B Niche grade.

Valhalla High School, an A graded school ranked among the Best Public High Schools in New York, serves older students in the area. “Athletics are big here, so families are often at a lacrosse or soccer game at one of the schools during the week. And we have high school rivalries, which can turn football games into Friday Night Lights,” says Kori Sassower, a local and Realtor at Compass Greater NY, LLC with seven years of experience in the Westchester area.

Hiking trails and boat access

Plenty of parks and lakes give North White Plains locals the peace that comes with the open air. “A lot of people go to Cranberry Lake Preserve, which sits between Kensico Reservoir and Rye Lake north of the neighborhood, where there are wooded hiking trails, boat access and a wildlife nature center,” says Sassower. And Passidomo Veterans Park is on the other side of Silver Lake, where there are athletic fields and a playground. “Near the park on Silver Lake, they just added a pool complex with waterslides and a splash pad, for West Harrison residents only,” Sassower adds. Delfino Park is right off Interstate 287, where there are also athletic fields and a playground, as well as a seasonal ice rink. “A lot of bikers and runners use the Bronx River Trail, which runs from North White Plains all the way into the Bronx,” Santucci says.

There’s also a Stop & Shop nearby for groceries and essentials, and the White Plains Hospital is less than a mile away.
