Quoted very simply by us as “a nice place to live.” Glen Head in the Town of Oyster Bay, is a community driven area filled by a palpable energy of a relaxed suburban lifestyle. The more you get to know Glen Head, the more you will like it. Many community events are concentrated around the North Shore School District. The Gold Coast Library is in the middle of it all right next to the Glen Head train station which is generally under an hour commute into Penn Station. Ball fields, beaches, and numerous local businesses cater to a small town feel that also features many dining options and a selection of organic food options. Glenwood Landing right next door is one of the smallest towns on all of Long Island in terms of number of residents. Surrounded by all the villages of the Gold Coast, Glen Head provides housing in a variety of price ranges, from $300,000 to $3,000,000, a myriad of opportunities to satisfy the needs of many different buyers. Also adjacent to Roslyn Harbor where larger parcels can be found and even some waterfront properties leading into the town of Roslyn.
