Maryknoll balances quiet hillside living with a sense of purpose shaped by its historic mission community. The striking tower of the Maryknoll Fathers and Brothers headquarters rises above the treetops, a local landmark that hints at the hamlet’s global outlook. Across the way, the Maryknoll Sisters campus adds contemplative green space and occasional community programming. Residents value the calm streets, Hudson River views, and quick access to the cultural energy and dining scenes of Ossining and nearby river towns like Tarrytown.
Outdoor time is easy to come by. Teatown Lake Reservation’s miles of trails and nature programs sit just up the road, and the Old Croton Aqueduct and Rockefeller State Park Preserve offer weekend loops under towering oaks. Waterfront parks in Ossining host summer concerts and sunsets over the Palisades, while historic sites in Sleepy Hollow and throughout Westchester County make day trips effortless. Commuters appreciate the Metro-North Hudson Line from Ossining station, typically reaching Midtown in under an hour.
Families are served by the Ossining Union Free School District, known for strong arts offerings, nationally recognized science research at the high school, and robust language programs. Housing options range from classic colonials and mid-century homes on leafy lanes to townhomes with low-maintenance convenience, all with quick connections to Route 9A and the Taconic.
