Staten Island's "NORTH SHORE" Community WESTERLEIGH -See What Just Sold !

Happy Seller, happy buyers make for a great day in Staten Island's  Westerleigh "NORTH SHORE" community ! This 2 family fixer-upper located in the heart of Westerleigh was owned by a war veteran.

Apropos for today- Veteran's Day the sale day of this colonial home! 

The new owner's will renovate and bring new life to this 1920 colonial home, adorned with chestnut floors and trim.

Chestnut trees beautified many Staten Island streets in the early 1900's.

A blight took over this fabulous tree. Less and less Chestnut trees were seen adorning Staten Island streets.

Valued for its strength and rot resistance, the timber was prized by woodworkers.

Local homeowners  know the beautiful woodwork in their home is due to the chestnut blight.


 

The Westerleigh neighborhood gained much local attention for the abundance of patriotic decorations

adorned on its homes in the aftermath of Sept.11,2001 attacks.
