The Isle of San Souci has scenic views and homages to its French roots
The Isle of San Souci, translated to "island without a care," owes its founding to the ambitious spirit of the French Huguenots seeking refuge in the New World. These early settlers left a distinct mark that today imbues the area with its French influence, with various street names and amenities reflecting its founding amongst the breathtaking views of the Long Island Sound. “The largest draw to the neighborhood is the proximity to the sound. When you want, you can look out your window and see the expansive blue waters all around. It just takes you away,” says Owen Berkowitz, Realtor with Christie’s International Real Estate New York, who has been a Westchester resident since the early 1990s. The homes here are as varied as they are picturesque, ranging from stately waterfront residences to charming ranchers and classic brick condominium buildings.

From small condos to luxury waterfront homes
“New Rochelle has always had its residents in mind when developing this area," Berkowitz says. "Instead of industrial developments, they zoned the waterfront for residential life, and that’s remarkable." The neighborhood isn’t just a place to live. The community offers an immersive lifestyle with various communities scattered throughout. Wandering through the streets, you can find a one-bed condominium a bit more inland from the $150,000s to the mid $300,000s, depending on interior updates, or a $2.3 million luxury condominium on the waterfront in the Watermark Point community. The highly sought-after Isle of San Souci community comprises around 125 single-family homes with a mix of colonials, Tudors, and Mediterranean-style homes ranging from the mid $700,000s for a modest rancher to a $3 million waterfront property.
Homes in Isle of San Souci range from cozy condos to multi-million-dollar waterfront estates, creating a diverse and picturesque residential setting.
The neighborhood’s real estate market is thriving, with median home prices around $1.6M and strong buyer demand.

The Queen City of the Sound has parks with views and spaces to play
“New Rochelle, dubbed the Queen City of the Sound, attracts sun worshippers, boaters and swimmers,” Berkowitz says. The exclusive San Souci Beach Club serves as a social and recreational hub. Beachgoers sunbathe on their private beach, neighbors play tennis or swim laps in the pool, while the laughs from the bocce ball court echo through the air. With panoramic views of the sound, with golf courses abound, nature’s allure is never far away. However, those seeking green spaces can head to Davenport Park, a 20-acre park with winding sidewalks and grassy fields great for an evening picnic, where one can watch the setting sun over the sound. Another popular spot, Hudson Park and Beach offers sandy public beaches and a small playground where children run around.
Life here feels like a vacation every day, with sun-soaked beaches, boating opportunities, and vibrant social gatherings at local clubs.
Hudson Park and Beach in the Isle of San Souci is a great summer destination close to home.
