"5 under 5 in the 914"
Some people need a lot of bedrooms. In my case, we have 4 children, so having more than 4 bedrooms was optimal. Here's the challenge: kids are expensive, and so are 5 bedroom homes. Something has to give. Well, something did give. The market crashed, so there are now 44 homes in Westchester County priced at $500,000 or below with 5 or more bedrooms. I personally know of a 45th coming too. I'm going to list a 6 bedroom very soon.
I found these 5 bedroom homes all over Westchester: My Vernon, Mt Kisco, Croton on Hudson, Ossining, White Plains, Yonkers, Cortlandt Manor, New Rochelle, Millwood, and even one with a Scarsdale mailing address. If you want to search for yourself log onto Listingbook and check out the available homes.
Westchester is a great place to live and work. I have posted about the place before, and after having lived elsewhere for many years, I am happy to be back home.
