Rochelle Heights blends early-20th-century character with an easy, everyday rhythm in New Rochelle. Laid out as a residential park and adjoining the garden-like lanes of Rochelle Park, the neighborhood shows off period architecture—from stately Colonials to Arts & Crafts homes—on walkable blocks close to downtown dining and services. Commuters appreciate the swift ride from the New Rochelle station on the New Haven Line, with frequent service to Grand Central via the MTA’s New Rochelle Station page. Weekend plans often lead to the shoreline breeze and picnic lawns at Glen Island Park, maintained by Westchester County Parks, while Huguenot Park’s trails and lakes offer a serene in-town escape.
Families are served by the City School District of New Rochelle, with many neighborhood students attending New Rochelle High School and Isaac E. Young Middle School. Lifelong learning continues at the New Rochelle Public Library, a hub for story times, exhibits, and community events. Nearby Iona University adds collegiate energy, performances, and lectures to the local calendar.
For buyers, Rochelle Heights offers a distinctive mix of historic homes, leafy streets, and a convenient location; for sellers, its enduring appeal and proximity to transit and parks remain strong selling points.
