A rare find in the heart of New Rochelle, 197 Coligini Avenue sits on .26 acres of flat, sun-filled land — a classic 1917 four-bedroom home lovingly held by one family for 53 years. Original character runs throughout: a welcoming front porch, a wood-beamed living room with wood-burning fireplace, an oversized dining room with original moldings and French doors opening to the backyard, and a bright kitchen with skylights. Upstairs, four bedrooms and a full hall bath; the third floor offers an expansive bonus space full of potential. Close to Long Island Sound and with easy access to Metro-North for a commute under 35 minutes to Midtown Manhattan.

Chauncey Estates, located between North Avenue and Webster Avenue, is a residential and commuter-friendly New Rochelle neighborhood with leafy side streets and a mix of prewar and mid-century homes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the North Avenue corridor near Iona University, where coffee counters, casual eateries, and campus-day foot traffic set the tempo. Architectural cues lean toward tidy colonials and brick apartment buildings, with small lawns and mature trees shaping the streetscape. For local pillars, nearby New Rochelle Public Library anchors cultural programming, while the New Rochelle Council on the Arts keeps exhibitions and events in rotation. Ward Acres Park adds wooded trails and open lawns that balance the urban edge.
