Welcome to Dobbs Ferry
With its picturesque riverfront and a slew of hip establishments, Dobbs Ferry is both quaint and happening.
Dobbs Ferry beckons buyers who crave a more laidback lifestyle just outside New York City. Residents from all walks of life enjoy the village’s lush parks, tree-lined trails, and delectable dining.
What to Expect
Small-town charm mixed with suburban convenience.
The walkable village’s two main drags are lined with mom-and-pop shops and family-run restaurants. But you’ll also find a large chain drugstore and supermarket, and—a few minutes drive away—a newly constructed shopping center with national fast-casual chain restaurants and an upscale iPic cinema.
The Lifestyle
Friendly, family-centric, and laidback.
Locals love to be outside—whether it’s strolling the walkways or climbing the playgrounds along the waterfront, hitting the sports fields or pools at Memorial and Gould Park, or spilling out onto the sidewalk tables of downtown eateries.
Unexpected Appeal
A burgeoning arts scene.
Hudson River Landing, a 100-year-old waterfront building that once housed Anchor Brewing Company, has been gradually rented out to local artists and is now the primo stop on the area’s RiverArts Studio Tour. The village also boasts multiple art spaces that allow kids to create with wild abandon.
The Market
Townhomes, Victorian bungalows, mid-century masterpieces—you name it.
Aside from a few sprawling mansions near the country club, the lots are small and the homes that occupy them range from classic colonials to raised ranches.
You'll Fall in Love With
The river views, tree-lined trails, and one-of-a-kind restaurants.
Whether you indulged in the whole suckling pig dinner at the Italian gastropub The Cookery, a bourbon cocktail with sage-infused maple at Harper’s, or a farm-to-taco brunch at Tomatillo, nothing beats a post restaurant stroll while soaking up the beauty of the Lower Hudson Valley.
