Very good schools, no town pool, terrible commute since it does not have its own train station, Ardsley on Hudson station is actually in Irvington..you'd have to take a bus to another train station e.g. Hartsdale, Dobbs Ferry or Scarsdale since you won't be entitled to resident parking in either of those stations. Some homes in White Plains and Hartsdale are zoned for Ardsley and these places are actually in Town of Greenburgh so you can park at Hartsdale Station. [ Reply | More ]
