Listing by Kathleen O'Driscoll• Houlihan Lawrence Inc.
Fleetwood, located between Bronxville and downtown Mount Vernon, is a residential and commuter-friendly Mount Vernon neighborhood with prewar apartment houses and a rail-centered main street. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Fleetwood Metro-North station at Gramatan Avenue and Broad Street, where bakeries, cafés, and small storefronts line the sidewalks. Architectural cues run from Tudor-Revival details to brick mid-rises with landscaped courtyards. The Fleetwood Bakery anchors local routines with old-school pastries and a steady counter rhythm. Nearby, the Mount Vernon Public Library and the historic St. Paul’s Church National Historic Site add cultural gravity beyond the shopping strip. Pocket parks and tree-lined blocks soften the busier corridors along Gramatan Avenue.
