Willowbrook: Big green space meets small neighborhood feel
In central Staten Island, Willowbrook is a small, storied community where homes skirt parkland, historic sites and the College of Staten Island, which,at just over 200 acres, is the largest in college campus in New York City. Willowbrook’s residential area sits along the Staten Island Parkway, which acts as the neighborhood’s northern border and connects you to the rest of the borough. The area’s convenient location attracts commuters who want to enjoy both an active lifestyle near the island’s North Shore district and the quieter escape of suburban living.
Willowbrook is minutes to the Staten Island Expressway.
The Verrazano Bridge is less than 10 miles from Willowbrook.

Homes that people settle into and stay
A lot of people living in Willowbrook are long-term or generational residents: “Everybody knows everybody. A lot of people here are original Staten Islanders… It’s a very sought-after neighborhood and usually the listings fly,” says Kevin Bryant, a licensed real estate salesperson at Compass who grew up in Willowbrook and still lives nearby.
The neighborhood mix of single-family homes, apartments and multifamily properties caters to a wide range of homebuyers. Tudor, colonial and raised ranch styles dominate the architecture, but newer, more contemporary homes are also scattered throughout the area. Townhouses start in the mid $400,000s, while duplexes and semi-attached homes usually cost between $650,000 and $1 million, depending on size, amenities and age. Similar variables are a factor in detached homes, which typically go from $800,000 to $1.5 million. Willowbrook's homes typically offer more square footage and larger lots than comparable-priced options in Brooklyn and Manhattan. Many properties also have amenities like paved driveways and front lawns with gardens.

The Staten Island Greenbelt promotes active, outdoor lifestyles
If you’re looking for green space in the city, Staten Island is the place to find it. “People call us ‘the borough of parks’,” says Joseph Rodriguez, a longtime Staten Island resident and broker/owner of Truhomes Realty Group.
Willowbrook is one of the island’s most appealing places to live for outdoor enthusiasts because it’s cradled to the south and west by The Greenbelt, an iconic 3,000-acre collection of adjoining parks, natural areas and forests. Residents have easy access to recreation in places like:
Willowbrook Park, the neighborhood’s namesake green space featuring ballfields, an archery range, a small lake and the Carousel for All Children merry-go-round
Blood Root Valley, a 161-acre natural area where people can explore the ruins of the 19th-century NYC Farm Colony or use the facilities at the Greenbelt Recreational Center
LaTourette Park, which is known for its wooded hiking trail system and the public La Tourette Golf Course with an 18-hole layout
