Astoria Homes is continuously striving to enrich their communities and Parkside Estates is no exception. Parkside Estates residents will soon enjoy another tot lot and their own private walking trail.

This gated community features a beautifully landscaped walking trail with two parks. The first park is a tot lot, which features various hobbyhorses, a climbing tube and a jungle gym with a junior slide. The additional park, to be completed by the end of March, will feature a doublewide slide, a curved slide, monkey bars, climbing bars and much more.

In planning Parkside Estates ASTORIA HOMES wanted to offer a unique community park. Not only does this very innovative park run the entire length of the community but also the majority of all the Parkside Estate Homes back up to the park or the landscaped walking trails. This gives each home a very private and large rear yard to enjoy.

Parkside Estates homes are from 2,287 to 3,312 square feet. Some exciting highlights that personify this neighborhood include dramatic entries, spacious media niches, decorative arches, walk-in closets and ceramic tile bath and shower surrounds. The extraordinary exterior features large front and huge secluded rear yards, front yard landscaping with automatic sprinkler system and large covered entries.
