Set on a private and beautifully maintained .55 acre bordering the private Village of Nissequogue and the scenic Butler-Huntington Nature Preserve, this residence offers a seamless blend of timeless elegance and everyday comfort. Truly picture-perfect from the moment you arrive, the home makes a lasting impression with its attractive exterior and serene setting.

Three additional bedrooms share a newly updated full bathroom, enhanced with marble finishes and a classic clawfoot bathtub. The finished basement provides generous storage, including a large walk-in pantry and cedar closet. Andersen windows, a two-zone heating and cooling system, and an attached two-car garage add convenience and quality throughout. The fully fenced backyard is a resort-style paradise, boasting a solar-heated saltwater inground pool with diving stone, outdoor shower, expansive IPE wood deck, custom paver patio, and a built-in BBQ system—perfect for entertaining. The professionally landscaped front yard is equally impressive and maintained by a full in-ground sprinkler system. The home’s outstanding curb appeal is further enhanced by updated Vinyl Perfection shake siding, offering both style and long-lasting durability. Ideally located near beaches, parks, restaurants, shopping, and transportation—there is truly nothing to do but move in and enjoy the lifestyle this remarkable home provides.
