Water views, a suburban feel and lower prices
Perched at the southernmost point of Riverdale in the Bronx where the Harlem and Hudson Rivers meet, Spuyten Duyvil is a compact neighborhood that offers an uncommon mix of urban and suburban living. “The Bronx has a lot of ridges in its geography, so there’s a lot of high points and you get a lot of beautiful views, a lot of sunsets,” says Geoffrey Weiss, a licensed real estate salesperson at Compass who specializes in the Bronx and Upper Manhattan. In addition to more square feet for their money and a lifestyle quieter than most New York City neighborhoods, many homeowners enjoy views across the water to Manhattan or the New Jersey Palisades.
Spuyten Duyvil has a perfect mix of urban and suburban life.
Spuyten Duyvil has nature trails along the Hudson River.

Postwar co-ops and single-family homes in varying styles
The majority of residences in the Spuyten Duyvil are postwar co-ops, including the iconic cliffside post-war Blue Building. Co-op prices start at about $165,000 for a studio, and two- and three-bedroom home prices range from $500,000 to $800,000. The neighborhood's east side contains tree-lined streets with single-family homes in various styles including Tudor and Italian Revival, as well as more traditional Cape Cods, cottages and colonial-style homes. Prices range from about $1.2 million to $3 million. The 1920s Villa Charlotte Bronte co-op resembles an Italian villa and contains some of the most desirable homes here. Turnover is rare but expect to pay around $1.3 million should one hit the market.
Spuyten Duyvil has multiple high rise co-ops with views.

There is a sense of community. It is a small area and you'll often bump into people in the supermarket or the pizzeria. It's New York City so people want to be left alone, however, a smile and a quick hello are always shared.
