208 Centre Ave #2A, New Rochelle, NY 10805

Description

Welcome home to a piece of New Rochelle's architectural history. This sun-filled 2-bedroom, 1-bath co-op sits on the second floor of a stately pre-war elevator building, where a grand lobby of checkerboard marble floors, hand-painted scenic murals, and original leaded-glass doors sets the tone before you even reach your own front door.

Step out onto your private terrace and take in a peaceful, tree-lined neighborhood view — a rare feature that turns morning coffee into a daily ritual. Inside, generous room proportions, pre-war detailing, and great natural light offer the kind of "good bones" that today's new construction simply can't replicate. This is a home for the buyer who appreciates authenticity over polish — the character, craftsmanship, and quiet elegance of another era.

Location is everything here: walk to downtown New Rochelle's restaurants, shops, and Metro-North station, or head the other direction toward the Long Island Sound for waterfront parks, kayaking, and nearby beaches. Commuters will love the easy access to Metro-North and major highways, while everyone else will love not needing a car at all.

With just 10% down, an estimated mortgage payment of around $1,000/month and a maintenance of $1,394/month and includes heat and water means owning this 2-bedroom home can cost less than renting a comparable unit in the area. A rare opportunity to put down roots in a walkable, historic pocket of Westchester, at a price that simply makes sense.
