Valhalla blends small-town ease with big‑city access in the heart of Westchester County. Framed by the Kensico Reservoir and anchored by the monumental Kensico Dam Plaza, it offers expansive green space, community festivals, and skyline views from the dam’s promenade. Commuters appreciate the Valhalla station on Metro‑North’s Harlem Line, with service to Grand Central; shopping, dining, and nightlife in nearby White Plains are minutes away, and the hamlet sits within the town of Mount Pleasant.
Families are drawn to the well-regarded Valhalla Union Free School District, serving students from pre‑K through high school. Higher education and healthcare are part of daily life here: Westchester Community College offers broad academic and workforce programs, New York Medical College brings graduate research and events, and the neighboring Westchester Medical Center campus provides world‑class care and significant employment.
Weekends revolve around the dam park’s picnics, concerts, and the county’s 9/11 memorial, with miles of paths connecting to the Bronx River Parkway Reservation. History buffs often visit Gate of Heaven Cemetery, resting place of legends like Babe Ruth. Leafy streets, convenient parkways, and quick trips to Pleasantville theaters and eateries round out a lifestyle that feels balanced and connected. Whether you’re buying your first home or selling to move up, Agent Pronto can introduce you to a trusted local real estate pro to help you make the most of Valhalla.
