INTRODUCING: THE WESTCHESTER PARTNERSHIP WITH RPI LEARN MORE
North Castle offers a quintessential small town feel just minutes away from everything. Its town square is the inspiration for Frosty the Snowman, and you can still feel the magic in the air there. Enjoy the serenity of nature and small town living, while still being close to the big city.
Despite its small size, North Castle offers residents and visitors plenty of opportunity. Whether you're enjoying one of their excellent nature preserves and parks for a hike or boat ride, dining at one of their many restaurants, or commuting to the office, you'll find that North Castle offers a little bit of everything.
North Castle has many great educational opportunities. Those living in North White Plains attend Valhalla Union Free School District, and those in Armonk and Banksville attend Byram Hills Central School District.
Each of North Castle's three hamlets offer wonderful dining experiences. From Westchester's best bagels in Armonk and Ralph's famous Italian ices in North White Plains, and Finch's Country Store in Banksville, you'll find many locally owned restaurants and coffee shops to enjoy.
An early refuge for people fleeing religious persecution, North Castle became an established settlement in 1730.
