Rosebank Condo for Sale

Rosebank, located on the northeastern shore of Staten Island, offers sweeping views of Jersey City, Lower Manhattan, and Downtown Brooklyn. Originally an estate district for prominent families in the early 1800s, Rosebank now features tree-lined streets with detached and semi-detached townhomes. The neighborhood has a rich Italian American heritage and has grown to include Eastern European, Hispanic, and East Asian communities. Residential construction surged after the 1950s, particularly following the completion of the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge in 1964. Homes here are more affordable compared to other parts of Staten Island, with detached and semi-detached homes being common. Although most properties lack large yards, nearby parks and waterfront areas compensate for this. Rosebank is well-connected, with the Staten Island Ferry providing free access to Lower Manhattan, and express bus lines SIM1 and SIM7 reaching Downtown New York in about 40 minutes. Interstate 278 offers direct routes to New Jersey and beyond. Local dining options include J’s On The Bay, Bayou, Phil-Am Kusina, and Sofia's Taqueria. For shopping, the Staten Island Mall is a 20-minute drive away, and Market Fresh Supermarket serves as the main grocery store. Educational institutions include the highly rated PS 13 M.L. Lindemeyer and PS 48 William G. Wilcox School. Rosebank also features historical landmarks like the Alice Austen House and the Garibaldi Meucci Museum, along with parks such as Buono Beach and Fort Wadsworth, part of the Gateway National Recreation Area.
