Close to transportation and beaches in Inwood
On Long Island’s South Shore, the Inwood neighborhood keeps recreation close to home. Spacious homes fill the streets, with a private golf course in the north, Jamaica Bay to the west and beaches in the south. “I grew up here, and I own a few properties in addition to being a local broker,” says Giovanni Curra, an associate broker with Fresh Start Properties Inc. who specializes in the area. “Inwood is primarily residential properties with some commercial. There's a short commute to Manhattan with the Long Island Rail Road, and that's a big selling point.” Not to mention, multiple local restaurants and big box stores are easy to reach. This pocket of homes continues to be a popular spot to live, relax and shop.
Inwood residents come to Target for home goods and more at prices they love.

Inwood Country Club and Inwood Park
Inwood Country Club is a private 18-hole golf course that’s been the site of the U.S. Open, the PGA Championship and the PGA Tour. The club also has a popular tennis program and a private beach club in Atlantic Beach, 4 miles south of the course. “Inwood Country Club is a prestigious country club known by a lot of people. You're also five minutes from Atlantic Beach and Rockaway Beach.” Inwood Park is 16 acres of green space on a peninsula jutting out into the waters of Jamaica Bay. The park is also the meeting spot at the end of the Inwood Memorial Day Parade every year. Fishing enthusiasts who want to boat out onto the water need a leisure pass. The park is also a popular spot to watch sunsets or planes coming and going from JFK International Airport. The softball field doubles as a football and soccer field as needed, and the roller rink is open from April to November. The Five Towns Community Center is off Lawrence Avenue and connects residents with after-school services, volunteer opportunities and health programs.
