Hello - I'm a location scout working on a film and am looking throughout the NY area for a nice old suburban house that may be a type of "holdout," as developers/chains came into the neighborhood. The house should be nice, but not too nice. But the main thing is that it should be right next to a chain or chain stores like CVS, Starbucks, etc. I don't mean around the corner, I mean right next to an older suburban house. Have you seen this in your neighborhood or throughout your travels? Might you have any suggestions on where I might be able to find this? Anything I can checkout with Google streetview would be really appreciated!
Thank you all for your contributions! I was able to see some of them and hope to review the rest, now. A couple other factors, this should be ideally within 25-30 miles of Manhattan, and the house having a front and back yard is important, as well as a street with 2 way traffic in front, or at least wide enough to accommodate two lanes, and we can fake it...
Thank you again! The more options the better, and it doesn't HAVE to be a chain necessarily, but anything commercial very close to a nice old suburaban house with a yard would be great. I really appreciate your suggestions. From here, I will present them to the director and production designer, and if they like them, I will then follow up with the owners of the homes, get photos of the interior and exterior of the homes, etc.

How old? Are you looking for a particular vintage or style?
There is one practically in the Freeport BJs parking lot.
