Less than a mile from Iona University and shopping and dining
Like most neighborhoods in New Rochelle, Chauncey Estates has modern and revival architecture within walking distance of public green spaces. New Rochelle’s commercial street, North Avenue, borders the area, creating easy access to stores and restaurants. “I love, love, love the access to New York City,” says Patrice Footes, referring to New Rochelle. Footes is a local and an associate broker with Coldwell Banker Realty who also sells in Connecticut. “It’s a skip, hop and a jump. It’s close enough, but I can still come back home and be in New Rochelle.” New York City is less than an hour away, depending on traffic. Roadways lead directly to Memorial Highway, which takes commuters to the New Rochelle train station and Interstate 95. While Chauncey Estates mirrors much of what makes New Rochelle a desirable location, its more urban setting and proximity to Iona University make it suitable for students and commuters.
Single-family homes from $635,000
Sidewalks and winding roadways border homes sitting on quarter-acre lots surrounded by fencing or trimmed hedges. Yards are more rectangular, and homes are closer together than more suburban sections of New Rochelle. Homes built in the early 2000s are in the New Traditional style, while homes built in the 1920s to 1980s are in the Colonial Revival and Dutch Colonial Revival. Single and multifamily homes range from $635,000 to $825,000. Condos and townhouses range from $700,000 to $800,000. “I have noticed that people have purchased homes just for their kids while they attend Iona University,” says Monique Brunson, a local Realtor with Coldwell Banker, licensed in Connecticut and New York. “And then sell it after. A lot of folks who live there that have multifamilies will rent out to the college students.”

Important to know
“There are major redevelopments in New Rochelle,” says Footes. “Major renovations, the mayor is giving the city a face-lift to some extent. They’re putting in mixed-use areas and more green spaces. They’ve come with a few growing pains and major constructions.” While much of New Rochelle’s redevelopment is ongoing, some major projects include redesigning the transit center and converting parts of Memorial Highway into a local street to make neighborhoods affected by the highway more accessible.
