The Katonah Barber Shop located at 37 Katonah Ave. across from the train station is a really great place for men to get their hair cut. My son discovered this little shop two years ago when he went with one of his friends. After a few visits and great haircuts, my husband decided to check it out and now they are both regular customers. It’s not a styling salon and you don’t need an appointment, just show up and get your hair cut. There are four Barbers, and some extra chairs for clients who arrive at a busy time, but my husband has never had to wait more than 10 minutes. The best part about the haircut is they are fast, give a precision cut, and the cost is only $15.00 (plus a generous tip) So take a drive to Katonah and stop by the Katonah Barber Shop.

Katonah is a very desirable town to live in because of its historic charm and close proximity to the Katonah Metro North Train. People who live in the City always take into consideration how far it is to the train, how long the train ride is to NYC, and the cost to park. I just listed a condominium at Wildwood and checked the box for “close to train” as an amenity. I began to wonder what the definition of “close” was and decided the only way to determine that was to find out for myself and provide more information. That’s when I decided to walk the walk and talk.

Here’s what I discovered…

Time to walk from the platform to Wildwood Condominiums was: 16.38 minutes, total number of steps: 2,163, distance by car: 0.7 mile

What I’d like to know is how far would you walk to the train?
