Wilmot Woods pairs suburban ease with architectural character on the north side of New Rochelle, brushing the borders of Scarsdale and Eastchester in Westchester County. Broad lawns, classic 1930s–1950s Colonials and Tudors, and quiet, walkable blocks set the tone. Outdoor time comes naturally at Ward Acres Park, a 62-acre landscape of meadows, woodlands, and a popular dog area; park details and permits are available through the city’s Ward Acres page on the City of New Rochelle site. For longer rambles, the adjoining Nature Study Woods offers a serene network of trails, streams, and wetlands.
Families value access to New Rochelle Public Schools, with many Wilmot Woods households zoned for George M. Davis Elementary, Albert Leonard Middle School, and New Rochelle High School. Daily logistics are straightforward: commuters can choose the New Rochelle station on the New Haven Line or nearby Harlem Line service, and local routes on the Bee-Line Bus connect neighborhoods to shopping, libraries, and parks. Nearby conveniences such as the Quaker Ridge and Golden Horseshoe retail corridors add easy errands and dining without sacrificing the neighborhood’s calm.
