The Richness of Crestwood Living

If you happen to find yourself cruising with the top down on a Sunday afternoon in Westchester county, I highly recommend passing through a quiet neighborhood filled with beautiful and extravagant homes known as Crestwood. This posh neighborhood is perfectly located in the middle of Eastchester, Tuckahoe, Bronxville and Scarsdale. You'll know you're in the right place when you see a classic model Porsche parked right next to a new one! Late Monday evening I attended a dinner soiree a few blocks away in the town of Bronxville. I must say that I was impressed by the number of restaurants and quaint boutique stores that were located within a few blocks of each other. Being smitten with the area, I of course had to invest and purchase a piece of property there for myself.

I was originally drawn to Crestwood about six years ago when I noticed a fairly large house being built in the neighborhood. Calling it a house may be a tad insulting since Home Plans Incorporated states that mansion plans begin around the 5,000 square foot mark. After all, the late gangster Al Capone's mansion in Miami was indeed around 6,000 square feet. Needless to say, I was dazzled by the magnificent architectural work and even more by the $20,000 Baccarat crystal chandelier hanging above the foyer window. As you should already know, this was definitely my cup of tea!

According to city-data.com, the median household income of Crestwood is over $100,000 and the average home is valued around $811,325 to $1.2 million. In the heart of town you can find the Crestwood train station. With Manhattan just 30 minutes away, business tycoons can enjoy a hot cup of coffee and the crisp feeling of the Wall Street Journal as they ride to work. During the Christmas season, a tree lighting ceremony takes place outside of the station and beautiful lights and decorations fill the entire neighborhood.

Crestwood itself is an independent community. Equipped with their own representatives, the neighborhood has successfully established its own identity as a unified community filled with grand estates, an appealing mix of professional people, its own fire department and the Roman Catholic Church of Annunciation. Many children in the neighborhood attend Annunciation school which is conveniently located on Westchester Avenue in Crestwood, New York (as stated on their website).

Skeptics of the area like to point out the school system and knock the uppity atmosphere. They try to put down a neighborhood that successfully strives to be its own entity. I believe that everyone has a certain job. Skeptics are meant to be skeptic, I however, am meant to sit in my versace tiled bubble bath drinking a glass of vintage 1961 Dom Perignon and not think about such skeptics... Cheers!

Sincerely yours, 

The Wolf of Crestwood
