Albertson New York Homes for Sale

Albertson is a village in the town of North Hempstead located in Nassau County. This area remained rural for three centuries before builder William J. Levitt purchased acres of Albertson farmland in 1946 and covered it in mass produced homes. The following year, he used the methods he had perfected in this area to build his namesake of Levittown.  The remaining farmland soon vanished as other developers followed suit, transforming the area into a highly developed suburb that resembled older Nassau County communities.  Highlights in this area include Long Island's oldest Methodist Church founded in the 1700s and the Clark Botanic Garden in Albertson.
