Home of Sidney H. Burns

"The early single-family homes, often Tudor or colonial style, still predominate in many of the neighborhood's residential lanes, where the cicadas and leaf blowers drown out the sounds of distant traffic on Metropolitan Avenue. On some of the most desirable streets, which are a short walk to the Kew Gardens L.I.R.R. station, like Grosvenor Lane, Audley Street, Abingdon Road and Park Lane South, single-family homes usually cost between $425,000 and $975,000."
