Why Somers, NY Should Be Your Next Home

Looking for a place that combines small-town charm with modern amenities? Let me introduce you to Somers, New York – a hidden gem in northern Westchester County that might just be your perfect next home. Here are three compelling reasons why you should consider making the move to this vibrant community.

Natural Beauty and Outdoor Recreation

Somers is a nature lover's paradise, with over 1,000 acres of preserved open space and parkland. The stunning Muscoot Farm, a 777-acre former gentlemen's farm, offers visitors a chance to experience agricultural life while enjoying walking trails and seasonal events. The Angle Fly Preserve provides over 650 acres of pristine wilderness for hiking, fishing, and cross-country skiing. Whether you're an avid hiker, bird watcher, or someone who simply enjoys a peaceful afternoon in nature, Somers offers endless opportunities to connect with the great outdoors.

Rich History and Small-Town Character

As the birthplace of the American circus (thanks to Hachaliah Bailey and his famous elephant, Old Bet), Somers boasts a fascinating historical heritage that's still celebrated today. The historic Elephant Hotel, now serving as the town hall and home to the Somers Historical Society, stands as a National Historic Landmark. The town's charming downtown area features locally-owned businesses and restaurants that maintain the warm, community-focused atmosphere that makes small-town living so special.

Prime Location and Accessibility

Somers offers the perfect balance of peaceful suburban living while maintaining excellent connectivity to major urban centers. Located just an hour from Manhattan via Metro-North Railroad (accessed from nearby Katonah or Goldens Bridge stations), residents can easily commute to the city or enjoy occasional urban excursions. The town's location also provides easy access to the cultural attractions of the Hudson Valley, the outdoor recreation of the Catskills, and the beaches of Long Island Sound, making it an ideal home base for exploring all that the region has to offer.
