Learn About Bay Terrace

Nestled between Great Kills and Oakwood, Bay Terrace offers a unique "best-of-both-worlds" lifestyle on Staten Island’s South Shore. Originally developed as a planned residential community, it has grown into a highly sought-after enclave defined by its quiet, wide streets and a diverse mix of architectural styles—ranging from classic raised ranches to contemporary custom builds. Residents are drawn here for the neighborhood's understated elegance and its enviable proximity to the waterfront, providing a serene escape that still feels connected to the heart of the island.

✦ Why I Love Bay Terrace ✦

What I love most about Bay Terrace is the way it effortlessly blends a "small-town" neighborly spirit with the vast beauty of the South Shore coastline. There is a genuine sense of community here; it is the kind of neighborhood where residents take immense pride in their beautifully landscaped properties and truly know their neighbors. Living here means being within walking distance of the waterfront, where you can enjoy the salt air and the expansive, scenic views of the Raritan Bay at a moment’s notice.

Perhaps the greatest luxury of the area is having one of the island’s largest federal parks as your immediate neighbor. Proximity to Great Kills Park offers endless opportunities for an active lifestyle, from cycling and exploring the local marina to quiet mornings of birdwatching—where it is not uncommon to spot the graceful Great Egrets that define our local Bluebelt landscape. It is a rare pocket of Staten Island that feels both deeply connected to nature and warmly communal.
