Bellerose is a diverse Queens community on the Long Island border
Diversity, large parks and high-ranking schools make up Bellerose’s DNA. “Bellerose is a very beautiful, very diverse community,” says Shehriar “Sam” Islam, a licensed real estate professional with Signature Premier Properties who has over 28 years of experience. “There’s lots of shopping and dining, and it’s right on the border of Long Island. Bellerose is the perfect mix of being not too far from the city while still having the appeal of the suburbs.” Residents of this Queen’s neighborhood have a 30-minute commute to Manhattan with the Long Island Rail Road, but there are grocery stores, restaurants and parks a short drive or bus ride from home.
Bellerose blends urban and suburban living, featuring a wide range of New England architecture.
Colorful murals created by local artists add vibrancy to the streets of Bellerose.

From duplexes to new Cape Cods
Islam says Bellerose's home prices are slightly higher than those in neighboring areas, like Queens Village, because of the larger homes and school district. “I would say the area is 90% single-family homes,” Islam says. “I see a lot of bidding wars happen because it’s a highly desirable area. And people don’t mind buying a larger home that needs work because they feel it’s a good investment.” The cheapest options in Bellerose are three-bedroom duplexes and condos in the $200,000 to $375,000 range. With a jump in price and square footage, semi-attached townhouses and two-bedroom Cape Cods sell for $600,000 to $700,000. Most homes in Bellerose feature at least three bedrooms, uncovered parking and brick steps leading up to the front door, all for $700,000 to $950,000. Colonial Revivals and Cape Cods that were recently built or renovated often sell for $950,000 to almost $1.4 million.

Easy LIRR and highway access
It takes roughly 30 minutes to commute into Manhattan when taking the train from Bellerose Station. “There are lots of options in Bellerose because of its location,” Islam says. “The buses are ready and available at the Hillside Avenue stops. People who don’t want to get stuck in the subway and feel like a sardine get an LIRR card and take the train.” Cross Island Parkway cuts through the middle of the neighborhood and connects to Grand Central Parkway, while the Jericho Turnpike runs along the area’s southern boundary. JFK International Airport is a 10-mile drive south along the Cross Island Parkway. The neighborhood is also 2 miles south of the Long Island Jewish Medical Center, which features the Cohen Children’s Medical Center and multiple specialized departments. Bellrose’s diversity shows in its places of worship. Multiple churches, Hindu temples and masjids exist throughout the neighborhood, like St. Gregory's the Great Church on 88th Avenue and the Islamic Foundation of New York on 7th Street.

South of the racetrack is UBS Arena, where headlining musicians and comedians host their shows, and Islanders fans pack the stadium to catch a hockey game. The Queens County Farm Museum, north of the neighborhood, has been operating since 1697 and keeps a full calendar of public events, like the summer Stop ‘N’ Swap, Thunderbird American Indian Powwow and The Gift of the Magi reading with Santa visits and hayrides.
