Grymes Hill Real Estate: Rent, Sell, Manage & Invest
Grymes Hill is a leafy hilltop neighborhood near Staten Island's North Shore, known for its college campuses, harbor views and larger homes on winding, wooded streets. NY Online Realty helps you rent, sell, manage, or invest here.
Living in Grymes Hill
Grymes Hill rises above the North Shore as one of Staten Island's higher points, home to the Wagner College campus and the Staten Island campus of St. John's University. From its wooded, winding streets you get sweeping views across the harbor toward the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge and Lower Manhattan, and Silver Lake and Clove Lakes parks sit just below the hill.
The housing skews larger and older than much of the island — substantial single-family homes, a few grand older houses and estates, plus apartments and rentals that serve the student and faculty population. It's a quieter, more established address, close enough to St. George that the ferry and express buses to Manhattan are an easy trip down the hill.
The Grymes Hill market, in plain terms
Grymes Hill is an established, higher-end North Shore market where larger single-family homes and view properties draw buyers seeking space and prestige, while the two college campuses create steady rental demand. Larger homes can take longer to trade, but the setting and views keep the neighborhood desirable; rentals near the campuses stay in demand.
