Spotlight on Willowbrook Staten Island Homes for Sale
Green space is a hallmark of Staten Island’s Willowbrook neighborhood. Farmland through the 1960’s, this serene community is part of the Staten Island Greenbelt – 2800 acres of designated parkland. Residents are connected to their community and enjoy the green oasis that surrounds them.
Along with farms, Willowbrook housed several large institutions over the years, including the abandoned Sea View Hospital – added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005 – and a military hospital turned state school. That property is now a campus of the College of Staten Island.
The homes for sale in Willowbrook are spacious split-level and high ranchers, as well as townhouses and semi-attached homes. Tree-lined streets and quiet neighborhoods make this a bucolic place to put down roots. Commuters will find an array of express and local buses to get them to Manhattan and all parts of Staten Island.
Willowbrook Park is a protected space for many species of birds, and provides a host of recreational activities for residents. Tennis courts, playgrounds, baseball fields and an archery range are available, as well as a five acre lake and hiking/walking rails. A beautiful Carousel for All Children merry-go-round is a popular attraction for families.
