Southeast Yonkers is a place of opposites

Situated on the edge of the Bronx, Southeast Yonkers is an urban residential community with a range of housing options to fit any budget. “These are homes that first-time buyers can afford,” says Ken “Bosco” Rabasco, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty, who’s been selling homes in the area for nearly a decade. The neighborhood is big enough to be a place of opposites. A subdivision like McLean Heights that sits along the 1,200 acres of Van Cortlandt Park on the Bronx border has a completely different feel than the residential streets between the 90-acre Hillview Reservoir and the half-mile horse racing track at the Empire City Casino. Southeast Yonkers is hilly, with peaks and valleys that make streets just blocks away seem like they’re in different neighborhoods. In this socio-economically diverse neighborhood on the border of New York City, commuters can get to Midtown Manhattan by train or car in under 30 minutes.

One-bedroom co-ops starting in the $100,000s

Residents in places like the large multi-building Fleetwood Park co-op have the convenience of the Cross Center Mall with its many shops and restaurants to the west and the Fleetwood stop on the Metro-North Railroad to the east. Large one-bedrooms in co-op buildings range from $100,000 to $200,000. Near Bregano Park, colonial-style homes from the early 20th century cost $600,000 to $800,000. “There’s no new construction. Most homes were built between the 1930s to the 1950s,” says Rabasco. The southern part of the community along the slope bordering Van Cortlandt Park has Cape Cod-style houses that typically sell for $550,00 to $750,000.

Home prices in Southeast Yonkers range from $550,000 to $800,000, but co-ops start at $100,000.
