Waterfront Ranch with Deep-Water Dock & Expansive Main Channel Views!!!
Nestled on a serene waterfront lot near Governor’s Island, this charming ranch-style home with basement offers the rare combination of peaceful living and spectacular long-range main channel views. The property’s true standout is its prime waterfront setting complete with a covered dock on deep water—perfect for boating enthusiasts and those who simply love waking up to the water.
Over 50 years old and well maintained, the home has already received important updates including new windows and HVAC in 2022. While it would benefit from cosmetic refreshing to suit modern tastes, the extent of any updates is truly in the eye of the next owner. The solid bones, desirable location in a quiet and very safe neighborhood, and unmatched waterfront lifestyle make this a compelling opportunity.
Enjoy the best of both worlds: a comfortable, established home ready for your personal vision, paired with an exceptional deep-water lot that few properties can match.
