Belmont Real Estate

A small town feel gives Belmont residents the illusion that they’re living far from New York City. Traditionally known as the Bronx’ Little Italy, the area still has a distinct Italian footprint, particularly on the bustling Arthur Avenue with its family-run shops, bakeries and groceries. Between bites of cannoli and sips of espresso, patrons can discover an enclave that’s brimming with old-world charm as well as welcoming a diverse population. In fact, the area now hosts the annual Cinco de Mayo celebration. Fordham University is a big driver for student housing in the area. Apartment buildings and elegant row houses along with Tudor and art deco architecture comprise the housing stock.
