Bellmore Homes for Sale

The smart way to browse Bellmore

Bellmore is a single-family town almost across the board — postwar Capes, ranches, and split-levels on tidy blocks north of the Sunrise Highway, larger colonials and waterfront homes running toward the canals and the Great South Bay in South Bellmore. New construction is scarce, so nearly everything in the grid is a mid-century house renovated to some standard, and two similar-looking listings can carry very different roofs, systems, and permits. The condo and co-op filters are above if you want them, but expect short lists here — the real sorting in Bellmore happens on beds, price, and which half of town a house sits in. When a listing is worth a closer look, you reach a named Leatherman Homes agent directly.

Elementary schooling splits between the North Bellmore and Bellmore school districts — the district line is set by the block, not the ZIP code — before both halves feed the shared Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District from seventh grade. The LIRR Babylon branch runs the rail commute from the Bellmore station into Penn Station and Grand Central. Open the Bellmore map to see how a given block sits relative to the Sunrise Highway, the station, and the water before you tour — for the full read on the town, start with the Bellmore area guide.

Where the homes are

Bellmore splits into two halves at the Sunrise Highway. North Bellmore is the larger residential half — postwar houses on grid blocks, generally farther from the water and with lower flood exposure. South Bellmore, below Merrick Road, runs down to the canals and the Great South Bay, where lots get larger, some homes sit directly on navigable water with bulkheads and docks, and the FEMA flood reading does the most to set value. The pocket around the Bellmore LIRR station and the Bedford Avenue strip trades a little quiet for walkability. Buyers here tend to anchor a search on one of those pockets, not the whole town — open any point below in Google Maps to see what sits within a few minutes of a given listing.

Official Bellmore resources

Before you tour or make an offer, it is worth checking the public record yourself. These are the primary sources for town, county, school, flood, and census information — the same ones we cross-check when we price a Bellmore home, and the reason we do not publish a median that goes stale the week after it is written.
