A green, spacious pocket of the South Shore in ZIP 10309 - some of the biggest lots on the island, estate feel streets, a state nature preserve on the water, a fishing pier at the park, and its own train to the ferry. Here is what it is actually like to live here.
Prince's Bay is where you go on Staten Island when you want land. The lots here run bigger than almost anywhere else on the island, with plenty of properties that feel like estates - long driveways, real yards, and the kind of space you rarely find inside the five boroughs. The housing stock is mostly detached single family, from classic colonials to newer custom builds set back from the road.
What makes it special is the setting. This is a green, waterfront part of the South Shore, with a state nature preserve, a shoreline park, and quiet streets that feel a world away from the city. It is a neighborhood for people who want privacy, nature, and space without giving up their own train to the ferry.

Prince's Bay is a driven by demand market where lot size does a lot of the work. Most homes trade in a broad range from about $650,000 to $1,000,000, with the number set by land, square footage, updates, and how close you are to the water. Estate size and waterfront properties sell at the top of that range and above. Because buyers looking for space and privacy compete for the good ones, well priced, well presented homes here tend to draw strong interest.
Those are ranges, not your number. The only way to know what a specific Prince's Bay home is worth today is a real read on the exact house, its lot, and the most recent sales nearby.
