Why the Owner Chose Other Manhattan Properties
The area is ideal to escape the noise and polution of Manhattan. You feel as if you are in the country side. It is safe and quiet and at the same time near restaurants and shops.
A trip to Manhattan by public transportation is esasy and you can park your car for free!
Very conveniently located to get to/from the airport.
I lived in this neigborhood since 1993 and I absolutely love it.
