Market Snapshot

Redfin’s August 2026 citywide numbers put Scarsdale’s median sale price at $3,020,501, up 43.8% year-over-year, with homes moving in a median of 15 days, down from 20 a year ago, as many sell above asking. Zoom into the 10583 zip code specifically and Zillow’s typical home value is $1,464,571, up 9.1% year-over-year, though Zillow’s page currently shows data running only through January 2026 – a reminder that ‘Scarsdale’ covers a wide price range depending on which of its five hamlets you’re in, and that these two sources aren’t perfectly apples-to-apples right now.

Schools

Scarsdale High School holds a 10/10 GreatSchools rating and earned a College Success Award for the 2023-24 school year. It’s a big part of why buyers pay a premium here – test scores, AP participation, and college outcomes are consistently among the strongest in the state.

Commute to NYC

Scarsdale sits on the Metro-North Harlem Line in Zone 4. Peak fare to Grand Central runs about $13.75 one-way ($10.25 off-peak), with express trains making the trip in around 33-38 minutes.

Neighborhood Character

Scarsdale is really five distinct hamlets – Fox Meadow, Heathcote, Greenacres, Quaker Ridge, and Edgewood – each with its own feel but the same commitment to schools and tree-lined streets. Expect Tudor and Colonial homes, some sections without sidewalks, and a village center built around the train station.
