What's special

Set on nearly four acres along one of the North Fork’s most coveted stretches of sandy bay beach, this is a rare opportunity to secure an exceptional waterfront property with meaningful upside. The existing three-bedroom, four-bath home offers a solid foundation for renovation or expansion, allowing a new owner to tailor the property to their vision. The grounds are equally compelling. A tennis court is already in place, and the oversized detached three-car garage adds flexibility for storage, studio space, or future accessory use, leaving ample room to site a pool. Centrally located with easy access to the North Fork’s vineyards, farm stands, restaurants, and marinas, the setting strikes a balance between privacy and convenience. Offerings with this combination of land, beach quality, and potential are increasingly rare, presenting a clear opportunity to create a premier waterfront compound.
