There are many advantages that come with the house, aside from it being in a private development. For starters, there are a few parks very close to the house, including Eibs Pond Park and De Matti Playground, which has a baseball field, a basketball court, and a playground.  It is very close to the Staten Island Expressway, which will get you to the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge in a short amount of time. Many schools surround the area; however, you would have to call your local public school to see which school your child may be zoned for. In addition, there are a number of buses in the area that will certainly get you where you need to go.

P.S. 57, at 140 Palma Drive; P.S. 13, at 191 Vermont Avenue; P.S. 14, at 100 Tompkins Avenue; I.S. 49, at 101 Warren Street; Concord High School, at 109 Rhine Avenue; and the Michael J. Petrides School, at 715 Ocean Terrace, are the nearest public schools to the house.  For Catholic schools, students may attend the St. Mary School, at 1124 Bay Street; Immaculate Conception School, at 104 Gordon Street; St. Sylvester School, at 884 Targee Street; St. John Villa Academy, at 25 Landis Avenue; Notre Dame Academy High School, at 134 Howard Avenue; and St. Joseph Hill Academy High School, at 850 Hylan Boulevard.  Other private schools close to the house are the Trinity Lutheran School, at 309 St. Paul’s Avenue, and Wagner College, at 1 Campus Road. The schools above may not necessarily be those this home is zoned for. Individually verify with the local school board or school administration to determine enrolment eligibility.

We’ve already discussed the benefit of being so close to the Staten Island Expressway, so now we’ll discuss some other transportation options that come with the house.  On Tompkins Avenue, you have access to two local bus stops; the s52, which will take you to Staten Island University Hospital, and the s78, which will take you along Hylan Boulevard to the Bricktown Mall. A bus stop for the s76 can be found on Vanderbilt Avenue.  You can take this bus along Richmond Road and into the Oakwood community. All three of the buses come from the St. George Ferry Terminal, which means that you can also travel there to get into Manhattan. In addition to the buses, the Clifton Train Station, which is located on Bay Street and Townsend Avenue, is about a ten-minute walk from the home. From here, you will be taken from points between Tottenville and the St. George Ferry Terminal, in less time than the bus would take.
